Welcome to the leaf pile…

We have as many books as can reasonably be squeezed into our little shop. There’s shiny new books and battered old books; there’s fiction and fact, pictures and poetry, space and speculation, romance and religion, fantasy and farce, murder and magic, drama and disaster.

(And a window seat.)

If you can’t find what you were looking for, relax, get yourself a piece of cake (from somewhere else, we don’t have space for cake) and come back later. If there’s nothing around here which looks interesting, turn the page.

How we built a bookshop: the story so far…

Found a safe spot, in the shadow of the Tolbooth’s tower

Then the fun part…books

Stuck a few shelves to the walls

Checked the insides for monsters and worm holes
