this was a cute little novella that any book lover would enjoy. my favorite part was about the book-loving child, because it reminded me so much of myself as a kid that i couldn't help but break out smiling. :-)

Seemed to me a little mean spirited and patronizing, but there were some good insights and interesting conclusions.
I am still very interested in The Diary of a Bookseller and Confessions of a Bookseller  :)

Listened to this on Audible... about 3 hours.

I probably would’ve enjoyed this more if I’d waited a couple months, as I just listened to the first two books. Still fun.

Entertaining enough short read, I'm glad it gave him something to explore during the pandemic even if it wasn't nearly as interesting as his other books.

Author is clearly jaded from life in customer service (as we all are) and I couldn't help but laugh at his dry sense of humour

A short easy read and if you love real secondhand bookshops this is for you ..
and a small disclaimer.. I spent a week in Wigtown and bought many books from his shop .. He is charming , rude , and wonderful and The Bookshop is a treasure.... just curious about how he classified me...
