    I've only been to London once in my life. This year in august. It was a trip for teens from 13-17 to improve their English skills...
    It was only the last day of the trip when we went to London and we had a little bit of freetime before we had to go to the airport.
    And I went into this waterstones.
    But. I. Only. Had. 15. Minutes.
    I only saw two floors ;-;

    Thank you for treating us to such a wonderful tour of hip London bookstores! In this time of lockdown & restrictions your video almost made me recover and relive a time when such shops could be delightfully experienced, and the day brought to a close with a cuppuccino! This was wonderfully generous of you! Peace ✌️!

    I could literally spend days in Waterstones without getting bored… (sorry, I seem to be spamming the comment section now 😁)

    • @SophiesSeries

      Oh me too! It's my favorite place to go in between classes and I never get bored ❤️

      SophiesSeries Ohh you should try the Waterstones in Reading - it’s absolutely huge and I once actually spent a whole day in there (before I got kicked out at closing time…)

    Pordes is my absolute numero Uno favourite. They used to do regular university press remainder book
    dumps. The bookshops of the Charing X road are exceptions to the preferred delights of online book buying for me!

    Ahh! London is such a wonderful place, and I’m so glad you were able to make this video!💜❤️ I love Waterstones too 📖📚
    One of the little bookstore gems in my city is the ‘Little Apple Bookshop’. It’s very small but is very nice and cosy!

    I love your longer videos, keep up the great work :)
    And I've been obsessed with Waterstones ever since I visited a smaller store in Piccadilly Street, I think? Not sure. Sadly, I've never been to London since, but I am coming, that's for sure! I don't know when, but my future is inevitably linked with London. Enjoying your videos meanwhile :D
    And I accidentally run into the Waterstones in Amsterdam while I was there. I knew there was a store, but I had no idea how to get there, because Amsterdam?, who is to understand the names of the streets and the funny zip codes? So, I had already given up and, while shopping and randomly going through town, there it rose in front of me, the mighty Waterstones, literally a five minute walk from my hotel. Had the time of my life until my friends had to drag me out.

    Hatchards looks phenomenal! I can't believe I never found that one, and I've been to London many times too. If you're ever in Ireland I cannot recommend Charlie Byrne's in Galway and Chapters in Dublin highly enough. Chapters is a bit like Foyles but Charlie Byrne's is my favourite in the world.
