That mini library is an inspiration. It occupies a small corner but could fit many books there. Also that type of book covers are so rare and I only see them around national library and back in my uni.

It's a great use of space, and I really love those old books. When I get a book case at home, I'm going to get some old books from the second hand shop and put them on the shelf,it would look so classy!
Did you ever write about UK book thrift store? I want to know how it looks inside there and the type of books they sell. Here, they are often disorganized but sold some really nice books and we can bargain too. Though, the problem I have with them is restoring the book and making them clean from dust mites.
I don't think I've written specifically about a second hand book store in UK before, only partly in this post. This shop is very interesting

We have a lot of charity shops on UK where people donate unwanted items to charity who resell them and the proceeds goes back to that particular charity. Books are popular donated items especially fiction, there's normally a few shelves full, sometimes more, and them they would normally be categorised by subject, cooking, gardening, history, nature, travel etc. These are some of the Brits favourite topics
Next time I come across a good second hand book shop I'll make sure I do a post for you!!
