Made it to Books Are Magic in Brooklyn today 🙌
My angelic sister in law escorted my butt all across the city to fulfill all my bookish dreams ♥️📚🥰
I loved reading all the staff recs. I‘ll tag a few in the comments from this Staff Picks photo below ⬇️

Chelsea.Poole Some of these I‘ve never heard of, which I love and I‘ll spent some time investigating. This is one I didn‘t know about prior: 3mo

The first bookstore we visited was Books are Magic and we went to their store at 122 Montague St which turned out to be the perfect starting point for a visit to Brooklyn Heights.

We had a little misunderstanding with the taxi driver, because who visits a bookstore? So he drove a little further down the road and we discovered a fantastic viewpoint of the financial district and Brooklyn Bridge.

Loved the bookstore as well.

Liz_M You're in NYC! Waves from Brooklyn. 7mo
AnneCecilie @Liz_M Back home now. Loved the parts of Brooklyn that I saw. 7mo
HeatherBookNerd Oooh, I loved This Time Tomorrow 7mo

UwannaPublishme Best way to vacation…exploring new bookstores! 😍🙌🏻 7mo
RamsFan1963 I loved An Immense World. It's one of the best books I've read this year. 7mo
AnneCecilie @HeatherBookNerd I‘ve seen a lot of love for this one. I think she owns these bookshops so I thought it would be fun to buy her book in her store. But the premise sounds great as well 7mo
AnneCecilie @UwannaPublishme Especially when they have books in a language you can read and there buy books. I find it less fun when I visit countries where I don‘t speak the language. 7mo
AnneCecilie @RamsFan1963 That sounds promising. This is the one of the books I bought that I hadn‘t heard of before, but the premise sounds great. 7mo
