youjustgotslushed: Nancy, France, 28th May 2012. ___________________________________________ I love that kind of old books with that kind of classy cover. It makes me feel like it’s gonna be such an awesome old story, but that’s actually often encyclopaedia covers, and I don’t like encyclopaedias… actually who likes it? So I’m always a little frustrated because I’d love to have an old novel like that. Today is the first of June, the garage sale season starts, my challenge is to find one this summer. Let’s goooooo !! (What if there is a garage sale during our trip to London? Oh gosh it would be awesome!)

secondhandbookreview: A return to the Bookshop on the Heath, Blackheath - a real gem of a bookshop in southeast London, which has been there since 1949. I was massively excited by this bookshop when I first spotted it: they had a fabulous display of vintage children’s books in one window (pretty sure the Enid Blytons featured heavily), and an old map of Greenwich in another. I was even more excited when I saw the shelves and shelves of fiction and non-fiction paperbacks outside, all available as a bargain-tastic multi-buy (I’ll take any excuse to buy three books when one will do). Inside, it’s quiet and dark - two of my favourite qualities in a second-hand bookshop - and I was distracted from my book-hunting by a couple of boxes of vintage postcards. I bought a lovely one dated 1900: it shows a sepia seaside scene with a practically tidal wave engulfing the promenade at Folkestone.
