The Diary of a Bookseller
by Shaun Bythell
it wasn't as funny as the blurb made it out to be. there were a couple times i smiled to myself but what's funny about it? i mainly got pissed off reading because of the rude customers 😩
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
so the author of this book is actually a bookseller and his shop is based in Wigtown, Scotland. in his diary he speaks about a life within his bookshop's walls, his town, book deals and all sorts of things. it took me longer to read this book than i was thinking but here i am, annoyed with the customers and one specific employee in the shop which is Nicky 😂 if i owned a shop and had her as my worker, she'd be long gone. she can't do things she was asked to do so why invest in an employee like her?? SACKED. ❌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
anyway, if any of you here are booksellers, let me tell you one thing – you are gems. your patience must be brilliant. you lot have my respect cuz personally, i couldn't handle people. and i think this book would be brilliant for you to read!
