When I go to London, I go book shopping. I take an extra bag just for the occasion. Because I mainly read English books and don’t live in an English speaking country. And while we get English books, since it’s not the main market there is just less to go around. So I love going to London and seeing all these English language books in abundance.
The bookstores I visited: The Works (Stratford Shopping Center), Foyles, Waterstones, Hatchards & Daunt Books. I got a few books in each store and for some reason was really feeling the cozy mystery/ thriller vibes. Not as much fantasy as I normally would buy, but I find so much fantasy nowadays is romantasy and that is just not a genre I prefer. This will tide me over until my next London trip for sure!
