A beautiful room inviting for sitting down and reading. I like the warm color of the light - it fits very well to the old books.

For a moment I thought this was your personal library...
Dreamer7112 (65 months ago | reply)
...as little I dreamt of my own old library with a fire place... ...but I never made it to the upper-class-having-their-own-library-people ;)
don't get me wrong, nevertheless, I'm happy !! (and still love to read)

Are second hand bookshops dying out? How do they differ from country to country?
Help to create a high quality photo-archive of second hand bookshops (especially exteriors and/or window displays, but also interiors, customers, shopkeepers, etc) with additional information about location (addresses and geotags).
Interested? Please add this photo to the Second Hand Bookshops Group at:

So richtig ein Ort zum schmökern. Gut eingefangen. Hut ab.

I love the richness of the colour in this photo. The sense of someone looking in is created by that door or window frame - full of possibilities. Congratulations! What a cultural contrast to my favourite 2nd hand bookshop in Qld, Australia!
