Read the two excerpts together, as one. 

They appeared on two pages hence the two photos. 

The Diary of a Bookseller by Shaun Bythell was such a fun book, I really enjoyed it! After looking him and the bookshop up, on Google, I’m going there if I ever get to Scotland!

#currentlyreading "Confessions of a Bookseller" by Shaun Bythell. As he documents the daily life of a #secondhandbookshop in Wigtown, Sahun's humour and love for his store come through and I hope to see it in person some day! . . . #confessionsofabookseller #shaunbythell #bookstore #bookstagram #reading https://www.instagram.com/p/B3I1bt8l3Bw9MhG-EMbyt5oM7ynSvjWtVsDT900/?igshid=172q5qzpu5q2y

This title would also work for my autobiography. 📚💙

#currentlyreading "Confessions of a Bookseller" by Shaun Bythell. This is his second book that's a daily diary of the comings and going-ons in his bookshop, called The Bookshop in Wigtown, Scotland. While he says people shouldn't really get into the second-hand bookselling trade, I still want to at some point. . . . #confessionsofabookseller #shaunbythell #book #bookstragram #reading #nonfiction #bookselling #bookseller https://www.instagram.com/p/CWwamWCF9MGFu9x_f4HYpPV4bSW-RQO8J4vLM80/?utm_medium=tumblr

Seen While Reading:

“Stamp collectors are a strange, silent, fish-like breed, of all ages, but only of the male sex; women apparently, fail to see the peculiar charm of gumming bits of coloured paper into albums.” 

from - Bookshop Memories by George Orwell.

Started The Diary of a Bookseller yesterday and I’m loving it a lot! It feels good to get back to reading. Shaun Bythell’s wry tone is very welcome. #bookstagram #bookaddict #shaunbythell #thediaryofabookseller #currentlyreading #ilovereading #booksaboutbooks #bookshop #book https://www.instagram.com/kleinekapitein/p/BwWqLDalRA7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1sqkp0pjf7b2f

#LetturaDelMomento: "Una vita da libraio" di Shaun Bythell (edito da @einaudieditore) è un libro che ho comprato compulsivamente un anno fa circa appena uscito, visto che parla di una libreria in Scozia. L'autore è il libraio stesso, perché la libreria esiste veramente a Wigtown (nel Galloway), si chiama The Book Shop, vende quasi solo libri di seconda mano, e questo non fa altro che aggiungere un nuovo luogo da visitare in Scozia e un nuovo motivo per tornarci. Gli eventi sono reali e narrati in forma di diario, che prende il via dal 2014. Tutto ciò assume un significato affettivo, nel mio caso, perché è l'anno in cui mi trasferii lassù e quando sono arrivato a leggere gli eventi del mese di marzo, pensavo "Ecco, in quel momento ero appena arrivato, cercavo casa, iniziavo i corsi d'inglese, etc etc". Nel mentre che leggo, prendo appunti per nuovi libri da leggere. Il libraio stesso trova nuovi spunti di lettura dai libri che riceve per rivenderli o che gli consigliano alcuni clienti. È meta-lettura, questa?🤔 #unavitadalibraio #shaunbythell #einaudi #book #books #libro #libri #leggere #reading #read #readinglist #readers #readersofinstagram #booknerd #booklove #reader #bookworm #bookaddicted #bookstagram #booklover #bookaholic #lovebooks #bookish #bookphotography #bookporn #goodreads #instabook #currentlyreading https://www.instagram.com/p/BvqyEDbH_0-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15hys7ys0qtcg
