Reading is such a personal activity; there are no two readers in the world that are the same. While some people may have similar tastes, there is not one mould for a ‘Booklover’ and that’s what I love most about my fellow bookmaggots. On account of my ‘being all new to the Book blogger community’, I thought perhaps I should take the opportunity for y’all to get to know me a bit. So here we have ‘Would you rather’. The Bookish Edition… All of these questions were taken from JesseTheReader's Youtube channel which I love, so if you haven’t checked him out yet; do so https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDPo9-NZFNi2Gwe8LnlvAUQ 1.) Read only trilogies or stand-alones Yee-owza, straight in there with a tough one. My absolute favourite book of all time is a standalone ( Uprooted by Naomi Novik FYI). But ordinarily I am a big fan of trilogies. I find a trilogy gives you more time to fall in love with the characters, their development and discover more about the

From very strange characters to crazy expectations from customers; it is a world of its own. I absolutely adore working in my (not so little) bookshop, but gosh dang it, there is a list as long as Tolstoy’s War and Peace of things I wish bookshop customers would know. So here we have 10 Things your Bookseller wants you to know . 1. Please respect the books. This has to be my NUMBER ONE PET PEEVE. How you treat your own books is your own business. But if you do not own the book yet then for goodness sake please treat it with respect. I see so many customers picking up a book to read a few pages and bending
