Brian BilstonIt’s Independent Bookshop Week. Here’s a poem about one of the many reasons why indie bookshops are so brilliant.
Titia Schuurman@brianbilston Indie booksellers are superheroes! (So are librarians, but Tom Gauld has covered that already. :-) )
@titia Ah yes, I love those Tom Gauld comic strips.

@brianbilston we have a lovely little bookshop here in Cookham. Named, appropriately, The Little Bookshop. They are great at getting things.

@DoctorDNS I’ve encountered The Little Bookshop before. They’re fab!
@brianbilston my favourite story. Wife took a friend there. He asked Chantal (the owner) if she could recommend a book by someone he had not heard of, but should have? Without moving, she reached out and picked out a book. Which turned out to be a great read! Oh, and she has magiced up a copy of the #gratefuldead book on the wall of sound!
@DoctorDNS You don’t get that with Amazon.
@brianbilston and she is just the nicest person. Someone you enjoy living near! Degibately not likely with Amazon!
