The Lost Chapter, nestled in the heart of Model Town, Lahore, is a fresh haven for book and stationery enthusiasts. Founded by Kinza, a passionate entrepreneur, the store is more than just a business—it’s a manifestation of her love for books and the tangible world they represent.
Like many aspiring entrepreneurs, Kinza has always been drawn to the idea of owning a business. But for her, The Lost Chapter is more than a commercial venture; it’s a way to keep people connected to the physical and emotional experiences that only books can offer. “As long as I can remember, my family and the people around me have always read books to be transported to another world,” Kinza shares. “This led me to realize that as AI is taking over, we should give people the opportunity to read real books and stay connected to the non-virtual parts of life.”
Kinza’s vision is clear: she wants The Lost Chapter to be a space where the smell of new books, the sight of rows upon rows of bookshelves, and the deep meanings found in literature create a sense of community and grounding. “The innate, penetrating feeling that I am somehow making the community a little brighter and perhaps a little more grounded excites me. A community that a good book can bring together is what we should all thrive for,” she adds.
The store offers a diverse range of books, including fiction, non-fiction, self-help, and children’s books. Beyond literature, The Lost Chapter also stocks a variety of stationery, bags, uniforms, and study packs, making it a go-to spot for residents in Model Town. Whether you’re in search of a good read or essential school supplies, The Lost Chapter is a welcoming place for all.
