WA Craft Bookbinders Guild

I always find myself buying books when I travel. Plan your next travel by the bookstore!

Bookshelves you want to move into 📚

From courtyard cafés and resident cats to grand chandeliers, cosy couches and a very iconic red door, these are the bookshops that turn finding your next read into a full-blown experience 📖☕️

Jolabokaflod, pronounced yo-la-bok-a-flot, is the annual flood of new books and Icelandic tradition of exchanging books with loved ones on Christmas Eve.

The “Book Flood” tradition dates back to World War II when foreign imports were restricted and paper was cheap so books became the predominant gift to give.

This tradition continues today and sounds like the perfect start to Christmas celebrations.
