Kate’s 2¢: ”The Diary of a Bookseller” by Shaun Bythell

”The Diary of a Bookseller” by Shaun Bythell

Kate’s 2¢: There is a plethora of in-depth biographies of authors and reviews of their books, that state the title, author, published date, and genre; as well as,     describing what the book is about, setting, and character(s), so, Kate’s 2¢ merely shares my thoughts about what I read.  I’m just saying…

I mean no offense when I say this is a great ‘bathroom’ book. The short diary entries can be read one at a time or several as you sit on the throne in your private reading room. The entries are entertaining and a good depiction of what a book  seller puts up with every day.

Biography of Writers

Literature

A funny and fascinating memoir of a year in the life at the helm of The Bookshop, in the small village of Wigtown, Scotland and of the delightfully odd locals, unusual staff, eccentric customers, and surreal buying trips that make up his life there as he struggles to build his business . . . and be polite. Unrated.
