Tell Me About Your Favourite Bookstore

Last Friday The Guardian published a wonderful list of bookstores worldwide – including one from Canada, woohoo! Any book-lover knows there is no shortage of lovable bookstores out there, so which is your favourite? I’d have to say, from The Guardian‘s list, I want to visit the bookstore-in-a-van that sells Portuguese books translated into English. Leakey’s, in Scotland, looks worth visiting too.

Shakespeare & Company, in Paris, is not included in this list – I have a feeling it might’ve been too cliche to include such a famous landmark. But in case you’ve forgotten, here’s my picture of the place from when I visited it last April!

What’s my favourite library? I blogged about it once before. Share yours below!

UPDATE: Shakespeare and Company is such a fun bookstore that I wrote it into my new novella! Check it out: Paris in Clichés

    Definitely Amazon. It has everything. Also lots of free ebooks!

    1. You’re right, Amazon is a different kind of library! I didn’t consider any sorts of ‘virtual’ libraries in my post.

        I love going to bookstores, don’t get me wrong, but it’s hard to do that when you live in an isolated area. So the internets it is.
