Daunt Books - Marylebone

Daunt Books - Marylebone | London, United Kingdom (Bookstore)

Daunt was one of the places I might have been most excited about going to in London so I had to head there my first day here. Such as lovely as anticipated and I am now starting to worry about fitting my new books in my luggage.

squirrelbrain I ❤️❤️❤️ Daunt! 12mo

Magpiegem I love Daunt books, but you are right I have trouble carrying my heavy bags back to the train home to Brighton! 😂 12mo

Fulfilled one of my life goals yesterday while on vacation in London. Truly amazing.

TrishB It‘s a wonderful shop ♥️ 1y

Jess @TrishB Right?! I limited myself to two books and a tote but wish a brought an extra book suitcase! 1y

Visited Daunt Books this morning for a browse, before meeting up with @TrishB @Oryx @jhod @RaeLovesToRead to see the play of A Little Life this afternoon.

I can‘t carry any more books home so I‘ve resorted to taking pictures instead, of books I want to read!

TrishB Lovely ♥️ 2y

RaeLovesToRead I also cannot carry more.... or can I? 🤔 (No, no I probably can't 😅) 2y

Hooked_on_books You should get a roller bag, then you can buy more and don‘t have to lift them. 😬 2y

BarbaraBB What a beautiful shop! You‘ve made the most of your trip to London! 2y

Soubhiville So pretty! 2y

AmyG I am curious how the play is as it‘s one of my most favorite books. And your trip sounds and looks fabulous! 2y

LeeRHarry It‘s a lot quieter than last time 😊 2y

Cinfhen Oh wow! That sounds like a fabulous day! Enjoy 😊 2y

LeahBergen How fun! 👏👏👏 2y

squirrelbrain @AmyG - it wasn‘t as traumatic as we‘d all feared, in terms of the abuse / self-harm parts, but we all cried. 😭 2y

squirrelbrain I did bring a roller case anyway @Hooked_on_books plus a rucksack but I needed to bring clothes to wear as well! 🤣 2y

AmyG Awww. I would have cried, too. 2y

squirrelbrain @LeeRHarry it hadn‘t been open long so was lovely and peaceful. Unlike the train home, which is full of footie fans again, just like last year. 😬 2y

Hooked_on_books The first time I visited Powell‘s, I didn‘t yet live in Oregon. I had already planned to buy a tote bag there and it‘s good that I did, because I bought so many books that I had to resort my packed luggage, check my roller (it had been a carryon), and use the tote to help get everything on the plane! I regret nothing. 😂 (edited) 2y

squirrelbrain The things we do for books ! 🤣 @Hooked_on_books 2y

Centique So beautiful! 2y

Visited the gorgeous Daunt Books at Marylebone this morning, where there was a steady stream of people looking for an Instagram shot. My pic probably doesn't do it justice, but it's a beautiful place to browse. I also made it to Foyles, Forbidden Planet and Judd Books.

Time well spent 😁

Thanks @RaeLovesToRead and @julesG for the tips - I will return to see more!

RaeLovesToRead Amazing! 🥰 Did you get anything? 2y

julesG Did you get any cake? Or just books? 2y

CBee @RaeLovesToRead this is the most important question 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 2y

Mandoul Yes to all of the above @RaeLovesToRead @julesG @CBee . I didn't go overboard though, more due to indecision than self-control! 2y

RaeLovesToRead My solution to indecision is usually just to auto-yes everything 😁 Look forward to seeing your haul! 2y

Me and my boys in front of Daunt Books in Marylebone, London. Possibly the best bookstore experience I‘ve ever had. It was magical. Will post one more of the interior.

Photo from my favorite London bookstore, Daunt Books, from this past Saturday! I squeezed in a visit between a work trip and a wedding (plus a 12 year anniversary celebration because the timing was just too perfect). So glad I made it there! I limited myself to one book purchase to save on packing space ☺️

LiteraryinPA I was there in 2019! It was delightful! 3y

Leftcoastzen Lovely! 3y

Mrs_B @Curiouser_and_curiouser it‘s in Marylebone in London, they arrange their books by country of origin rather than type which is really fun. 5y

Not as large as Waterstones or Foyles, yet Daunt Books is a lovely shop. Lots of character and tons of books. It was hard to resist all the lovely books.

AlaMich I am very curious to see what James Daunt does with B&N now that he has been named CEO. The chain needs a major overhaul and hopefully he can do what he did for Waterstone‘s. 5y

TrishB I love upstairs ❤️ (edited) 5y

marleed @AlaMich I‘m very curious to see if B&N locations become more local to their cities and neighborhoods. 5y

AlaMich @marleed That, and also renovations because the stores are so tired and bland. 5y

LiteraryinPA Yay! I scrolled back to see if I had missed a post about Daunt. I‘m glad you had such an epic birthday trip. 💜 5y

wanderinglynn @LiteraryinLititz thank you! ☺️💜 5y
