BOOKS ON THE RAIL / AUSTRALIA
We're Ali and Mich, the founders of Books on the Rail. We're Melbourne-born, netball playing, dog-loving, bookaholics and best friends. And we want to encourage Australians to put down the iPhone and pick up a novel.

How did we get this idea? Ali moved back to Melbourne in 2016 after living in London for two years, where she met Hollie, the Books on the Underground and Books on the Subway founder. 

​We launched in April 2016 by leaving our own books and ones purchased from second-hand bookstores on Melbourne trains and trams. Since then, we have developed a passionate and thriving following and now collaborate with publishers and authors, distributing their notable and up-and-coming books. Thanks to our crafty Book Ninjas (1000 and counting!) we have been able to launch Books on the Rail Australian wide! You can now find our books cruising around all states, including many regional areas. ​
​

When we're not book worming around town, sharing our love of reading with Australia, Ali runs her own ad agency and Mich is a primary school teacher.
