Meet the Bookkeeper

Rachelle is the founder and owner of The Book Keeper Shop. She was born and raised in Springs, a town East of Johannesburg.

After earning her B.Com. Accounting degree, she completed her three years of audit articles as well as her honnours degree in Accounting.


Books, literature and languages have always been her passion. Owning a little independent book shop has been a dream ever since she had set foot in a "real big book store" in London in 1997.

She is married to her best friend and is mother to a pigeon pair.

What a pleasure to have all your questions answered by a well informed lady, Rachelle!
We will be back for more, in the mean time, I am reading 'Die verevrou'!!
Till next time!!!
