There's no such thing as too many books so you can take comfort in that!! As for too few..... no, you're definitely ok on that score too :) Happy reading. Oh and I can highly recommend LibraryThing for cataloguing but wow, that's a job and a half for that many books!

I know what you mean about book chats on here! Your read sounds interesting. I'm into some light philosophical reflections with Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop by Hwang Bo-Reum. It's a gentle & thoughtful story for all book lovers, booksellers and writers. Really immersed in it!

A Christmas cartoon for the Guardian. Happy holidays, everyone!

A figure points at a bookshelf in the shape of a Christmas tree which is decorated with lights and has a star on top and says: "It combines the festive jollity of a regular Christmas tree with the clear message that I'd like every one of my gifts to be a book."

Our Christmas hours this year are exactly the same as our regular hours - Thursday, Friday & Sunday 11-3, including Christmas Eve & New Year's Eve! You will often find us open a little earlier and later in the day but these are our core times. #bookshop#indiebookshop#winchcombe#cotswolds

As someone who dearly loves hand-drawn maps, how could I not love this one from 1851, made to be worn on a hand? It's a glove decorated with a map of London landmarks, to help "fashionable ladies" keep from getting lost while visiting the Great Exhibition blog.nationalarchives.gov.uk/she-knew-it-...

A white, leather ladies' glove from the Victorian era, hand-painted on the palm and fingers with London landmarks.

Bears may not be the first thing you think of when you think "bookshop" but I have a few vintage and vintage-style bears in at the moment, looking to be adopted by their forever homes. Most are Dean's Rag Book Company bears - meet Branigan Jnr (from c.1997-8).
