Have you seen those dream-like fairytale Libraries or bookstores on Instagram? You know the ones I’m talking about, the staircases, floor-to-ceiling shelves of books, and art designs on the ceiling. They fill me with so many ideas about books and the many people with different lives and cultures that have walked in and around them.. simply breathing in books!
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl where list lovers, book lovers, and everyone can share their top ten posts using the topic of that week! Check out the list here:Â thatartsyreadergirl.com/top-ten-tuesday
- Cărtureşti Carusel in Romania
- Trinity College Library in Dublin
- Easons in Dublin (All Eason stores in Northern Ireland closed in 2020 and missed it massively, especially the events they used always used to host. Read about the Cecelia Ahern one here.)
- Slightly Foxed in United Kingdom
- Admont Abbey Library in Austria
I have only been able to think about although I know there are more out there.
What bookstores or libraries would you love to visit?
That’s so interesting that Admont made it to your list, I grew up near there. And it is a beautiful library, but I didn’t know it was that internationally well-known.
I was in Portugal this summer and you might want to look into Livraria Lello in Porto and Joanina Library in Coimbra. The first was one of the most beautiful bookshops and the latter one of the most beautiful libraries I’ve visited.
Whoa, these places are gorgeous!
