“It smells so good in here”
“It does. It smells like books, and it feels like home, and it’s full of ideas and possibilities.”

I loved reading this! There were so many touching and heartwarming stories about the power of books, the joy of books, and the magic of books. 

If you ever want to question what you’ve chosen to do with your life and consider becoming a bookseller or librarian, this is the book for you! 

“It’s the warmest feeling to make a recommendation that connects with a reader.”

“I believe that books are essential. They make us kinder, more empathetic human beings. And they have the power to take us away—even momentarily—from feeling overwhelmed, anxious and scared.”

“My heart always comes back to books. Having them and being surrounded by them is, to me, one of life’s most exquisite luxuries.”
