Antarctica-Clare Keegan is a wonderful collection of short stories.
Oh good! 🥰 I just love her writing - so simple and heart warming ❤️
Ang! You're almost a 1000 subscribers! YAY! We are doing a happy dance for you! How wonderful! Bookworms unite!! 📚What a fantastic video... I love Through the Looking Glass... I went there for my last birthday and bought a wonderful Elizabeth Goudge book that was so difficult to find anywhere else... and that Narnia wardrobe is classic! ✨ I can't believe you found Miss Read, I love Miss Read's books... anyday spent with Miss Read is a day well spent 🫖 Thanks for a fun and beautiful video... wishing you lots of happy reading, em 🥐☕📚
I love Miss Read! She’s like a warm hot chocolate by the fire! The ultimate comfort book ❤️
@@very.casual.librarian I agree! Cheers to Miss Read!! 🍵
You definitely need to make this a regular outing. What a fantastic range of books. I owned and read all of the Miss Read books about 30 years ago but unfortunately made the mistake of loaning them to someone and I never got them back. I’m definitely going to buy them again, they’re such a gentle read, just perfect for re-reading if you’re feeling a bit under the weather and want to curl up and read something undemanding. Thanks for taking us on your adventure to the beautiful Dandenongs.
Oh Ioaning books and not returning them = UNFORGIVABLE. (Take it from a librarian! 😝) I can’t wait to read the Miss Read books again! I totally agree: Perfect comfort reads! ❤️😌
Your video popped up on my feed today and I'm so glad it did! I'm a new subscriber. I'd love to come along on your book thrift shopping. Rainy Day Books and Through the Looking Glass shops are my favorites. I love seeing the amazing craftsmanship in the old antique books. ❤
Hello!!! 👋🏼 🥰 Welcome - I’m so glad you found me! 📚❤️ Thank you so much for being here and subscribing x
What a great idea! I've never heard of any of these bookstores and I'm SO excited to visit :D I'd love to see a librarycrawl or an opshop crawl. Love this Melbourne content!!

Thank you for taking us along to such lovely bookstores! How odd is this - I was just thinking about the story of Black Beauty last night. The edition of Alice and Beatrice is gorgeous! That would have been my pick for the day! 🥰
Oh my gosh she had some absolutely stunning and antique editions! 🤩 Beautiful collection!
Loved this vlog! Think I will have to pay a visit to some of those book shops and the op shops at Monbulk sound good. All fairly close to me and have never been.
Highly recommend! We’re so lucky to have such good book shops in our area! ❤️📚
🥳🥳🥳 What a great idea! 😍 Thanks forr taking us along. Such lovely book stores! 😍
The Olive Readers sound like an interesting premise, looking forward to hearing how you like it!
This was such a fun day! Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
Ferntree Gully, so cute. I'm in the ACT our libraries are branches, so I do most of my browsing from the online catalogue but this was a cute idea. Those old hardbacks, beautiful! I have a room of books and I keep the door closed so the dogs don't go in there and I sniff the air like you were doing. Clare Keagan! Great finds 😀 Happy Reading
Omg I called smell that smell all day! 😍🥰
What a great video! So much fun! I didn't want it to end haha! I did sigh when you sniffed the books! It's the first thing I do😂 I recently hauled about 16 se o d hand books at different places for about $75CDN, a d I was very happy❤ ha e a good day!
BOOK BARGAINS ARE THE BEST! 😆👍🏼 There’s nothing like that smell in the whole world ❤️📚 That shop smelled AMAZING. I’m def going to do more Book Crawls in the future! It was such a fun day!
This looked like it was so much fun! Definitely inspires me to visit my secondhand bookstores 😊
Oh yes! And thrift/op shops! So many treasures! 🤩📚✨
What lovely book shops. Seems like a fun day.
So lucky to have such beautiful book stores near me! 📚💗✨
This was such a great idea! I also love the idea of doing this for the libraries. New subscriber and looking forward to more content from you!
Hello! Welcome ❤️📚 Thank so much for being here - plenty more to come 😊
What a great idea, so fun!!!❤
Oh my gosh - this was such a fun day ☺️⭐️✨ Will def plan one again in the future!
So glad I have found you here, a fellow Aussie. After listening to many book tubers I can say you are a refreshing voice to listen to and have a better understanding of everyday books. I thoroughly enjoyed my trip with you to the stores. I have just found you here so I am off to cosy up as it is sooo cold at the mo and catch myself up with your other videos. Book stores and libraries after like second homes to me. Hope there is many more book trips to come. I have subscribed👋⭐️📚
HELLO FELLOW AUSSIE! (G’day! And Oi Oi Oi! 😆) ⭐️Welcome!⭐️ Thanks so much for taking the time to comment! ❤️📚 I guarantee there’ll be plenty more book adventures to come - I promise! x
That second store looked like it smelled delicious. I love the scent of a good (used) book!
Oh there’s nothing like it! 🥰❤️📚 That shop smells AMAZING!
So much fun! I am happy to have found your channel. Love all of the antiquarian books that you perused. Ooooh!
I wanted to adopt them all! 🥰📚📚📚
Love it, I did this with all the op shops in my area last weekend as we only have one bookshop down here and the next nearest bookshop is 20 to 30 mins away. The salvos near me has also recently done book loyalty cards buy 4 get one free which is really cool.
OP Shops are like an Aladdin’s cave of books! 🤩📚 And usually SO cheap!
Loved this! Thank you 😊
❤️😊
So good to watch this love it 😘
❤️ Nawwww - thanks so much, Beautiful Soul! I’m so glad you’re here x
I LOVE Miss Read! What a great buy!!
I know right?! And a 3 in 1: SCORE!
I've just found your channel and I love it! What a great idea and so Aussie (I'm in the Adelaide Hills). My daughter in law, myself and 2 granddaughters are in a book challenge, and I'm thinking of a book crawl in the July school holidays as part of our challenge.
YASSS!!! DO IT MATE!!! It was honestly such a fun day! 📚 I loved fossicking through all those treasures!
If you have the time when doing laundry, try folding it as you take it off the clothesline/out of the dryer. It just means you get it done right away and don't have to worry about it later.
Hey thanks! ⭐️☺️ Great tip!
@@very.casual.librarian No worries! I loved the video!
This was just wonderful! Just a perfect crawl. And that wardrobe is a lovely touch.
Isn’t it magical?? Beautiful touch for a bookshop! ⭐️✨
This video was so inspiring and fun !! Greetings from Brazil
BRAZIL!!!🇧🇷 oh my gosh - someone is watching my vlogs in Brazil 🤯🤯🤯 WOW! My mind is blown! Thank you so much for being here! ❤️❤️❤️
@@very.casual.librarian ❤️❤️❤️
I love this idea! Planning to do this for my birthday 🥳
YEEESSSS!!! 🎈📚 Perfect! 👌🏼
Ooh, just paused to say I'm so excited for this. Second hand books are the best! OK, continue❤😊
Oh it was so fun! Like a treasure hunt! 🤩📚
Cool idea. I always stop at Saver stores to check out what may be there to grab.
Savers has the BEST BARGAINS!!! Yesss!!!! 👍🏼
Just found your channel. I love this! Such a great idea.
I’m so glad you found it too! 😊❤️ WELCOME! 📚📚📚
What a wonderful idea!
It was so much fun! 💕 Highly recommended! ❤️📚
@@very.casual.librarian I loved the wardrobe door! Seeing all those really old books!
Getting coffee and snack added to the story, a must have. And meeting a friend was the icing on the cake.
Hope you do more like this.
@bettyfenwick6337 Thank you so much! ☺️🙏🏼❤️
Hey, it's school holidays here in South Oz. I'm planning our book crawl for next week. Probably go to a few "book sheds" some little street libraries and maybe Big W. My book fam is super excited. 🎉
YEEESSSSSS!!! HOW FUN! 📚📚📚 Have the best time! 😊👍🏼
Love the book shopping …. I have been to through the looking glass one at sassafras … it has my favourite tea shop there …. Always visit sassafras when I am down there 😊😊 I have that series of books murder most ladylike … really enjoyed the first one and must get back to rest of them …. I think going to different libraries would make an excellent vlog …..📚💘📚
Are you talking about the tea shop next to Miss Marples?!?! It is SOOOO GOOD! ❤️🫖
Yes that one , just love it when I am down there I stock up on my tea 🫖…….and across the road and down the opposite end to the book shop is this well I call it a mystic shop lol it has like amathest stones etc love it in there … 📚💘📚
@wendyluvsbooks1580 LOVE Sassafras! ❤️
@@very.casual.librarian I love it too !!!! at that tea shop they have a tea called stress less so nice and my favourite is a English breakfast tea ☕️🫖💓
@wendyluvsbooks1580 I love all the teapots they have in there! 😍🫖
I can recommend "Death and Dervish" by Mese Selimovic.
Ooh thanks so much for the recommendation! ❤️📚😊
Love this idea! New subscriber here. I don't have very many secondhand shops near my home, but I do have a county library system where I live in the US and most branches also sell books (25 cents for children's/YA/paperbacks and $1 for hardbacks). I want to try this! Also, I have a Little Free Library at my home and know of several near me. Do you have any near you? It would be nice to take a stack of books that I'm ready to pass on and swap one out at each Little Free Library for something else.
Update: Just saw the blurb for your upcoming video on street libraries! Can't wait to watch!
Oh my gosh - you must be psychic! 😳😆 Yep - watch my next vlog! ❤️📚
