J.K. Rowling, one of this generation’s most loved and famous book authors, once said, “I do believe something very magical can happen when you read a book.” Every bibliophile, a person who collects or has a great love of books, would agree with Rowling as they allow themselves to be immersed in the emotion that every book attempts to invoke. And this is the magic that certified bibliophile and book blogger Parisa Mirza-Khan has been enjoying for many years, prompting her to take her passion to the next level by opening an e-commerce shop selling book novelties and related items to bring awareness to pressing social issues.
The happily married mother of three beautiful daughters currently lives in Silicon Valley, California. She is making it her personal mission to encourage more people to engage in reading and make it a part of their lifestyle. Just as she has found refuge, comfort, adventure, and priceless insights among the many pages of books she has read since she was young, she wishes the same experience for many others who have yet to discover the many joys of reading.
As an active book blogger, Parisa fondly considers herself everyone’s social media reading BFF. Whether it is about sharing her thoughts on a particular book’s plot, creating a review, commenting on her favorite book characters, or talking about the writing styles of her treasured authors, Parisa is very prolific and generous with her insights. Ultimately, she wants to be able to engage people on social media enough to compel them to grab a book, sit down, and get lost in it. She is the go-to person on social media when people are looking for book recommendations for specific activities such as going to the beach or traveling.
It was in 2019 when she decided to join social media to share her rare passion with the rest of the world. She can easily use the most current trends on TikTok and Instagram to promote a love for reading. She is active on IGTV, IG Live, and Reels, showcasing engaging content that undeniably promotes love for books. She mostly shares positive content that encourages her followers and inspires them to pursue new learning on a constant basis.
Parisa has become such a well-loved active bibliophile on social media that various publications did features on her, including BuzzFeed, Bay Area Woman Magazine and Blogs: GlitzandGlossy.com and StyleFav.com. She is also currently a fashion brand affiliate for LiketoKnowIt. Parisa is on the board of Development Literacy, a non-profit organization that helps educate young girls in Pakistan.
If there is one thing that people currently love about Parisa as a book lover, it is her passion to do collaborations to help authors promote their latest books and projects. She has done several IG Lives where she interviews book authors about their books. This has allowed her audience to have a better understanding of the author’s plot, motivation, and writing style.
In 2020, at the height of the pandemic, Parisa decided to take a big leap and launched her own company, Enchant by Parisa. Her venture gave her another opportunity to promote a love for reading, create awareness for books, and support social causes. Her company consistently donates a portion of its proceeds to advocacies that are close to her heart. As she confidently moves forward to fulfill her life mission to encourage people to make reading a lifestyle, there is no doubt that Parisa will be successful.
