A few weeks ago, the sister and I spent a lovely day book shop hopping, browsing and buying books. Our first stop was Strand Bookstore. A grand old bookstore, a tiny little room crammed full of books. They aren't ordered in any particular way, so browsing in there is a bit of acquired skill. Since it's organised by genre, you have to scan all the shelves to find something you love.
I love this. It means I end up with unexpected treasures.
On this outing, I found some lovely classics. Modern American classics and a Japanese classic I have wanted for a while!
A very successful bookshop hop this!
Also came back with three new Peter Pauper Press books. Love them!
Yay to the joys of buying from a bookshop!
