  • So I can't resist visiting those small town book shops and op-shops when I am on a long road trip. My recent trip up the Australian East coast and back is an example. You often find unusual things and I am very happy with a couple of my finds.
    As well as some excellent sci-fi that I have been looking for for a while, I came across some Penguin books - and @JulesBurt has made me re-think the way I take Penguin for granted.
    Hope you enjoy the video.

      Isn't it though? I had completely forgotten about it and I was so excited to see it. Have you read it?

    That t-shirt tho'😂😂
    Glad you had a good vacation! There is only two things I don't like about the beach......the sand and the water!

      ...hmm.... That could really reduce your enjoyment of beaches. I don't think you would have enjoyed the livaboard either; no sand at all, but no land in any direction either...

    The Kraken Wakes is the last major Wyndham that I haven't read I think. Lots of lovely copies!

      There are some beauties aren't there? I always feel a little guilty when I have more than one copy of a book, because space is tight, but these are hard to resist. Thanks for watching and commenting :)

    Whenever I go on a trip I bring too many books (more than I can read) and by the time I get home I have way too many books.
    I need to read Inverted World, that book has been haunting me for what reason I dont know yet.
    Cant wait to find out.
    Love your Bookhauls!

      Thank you! Yes, seeking out new bookshops and unexpected books is very much a fun thing about road trips. I hope you find Inverted World, it is an excellent book and I would like to hear what other people think of it.
