big fan of bookshops that stamp their books at the register for whatever I’m buying, it’s contributing to my book collecting craze

#thank you Shakespeare and Company #even if I hate the book #I will be keeping it #readerslife

nothing beats that feeling of walking into a bookshop and seeing the book that you’ve been searching for and haven’t been able to find anywhere else 🥰

“I grabbed my book and opened it up. I wanted to smell it. Heck, I wanted to kiss it. Yes, kiss it. That's right, I am a book kisser. Maybe that's kind of perverted or maybe it's just romantic and highly intelligent”

The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie

daydreaming about how to reorganize my bookshelf is so much more satisfying than putting in the effort to actually reorganize it
