Bibliophilia at its best - books about books, readers, libraries, bookstores!

Beautiful books for when your monthly reading roundup needs a little facelift 😉

📍title inspired by @erintripsey's lists Audiobooks narrated by Brighton, England's Simon Vance! I'm a fan of his narration of Bram Stoker's Dracula and wanted to compile a list of more books narrated by him. He has a smooth English accent, lighter tone for feminine characters, and distinct variations with other UK/European accents.

Fun Fact: He's been an audiobook narrator since age 6, when he did a reading of Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Milne!

Books about books. Books about authors/writers. Books about readers…but not like Annie Wilkes from Misery. Just non-psychotic readers. This list doesn’t include libraries or bookstores, because those are totally different types of pizza.

All about books, bookstores, bookshops, bookclubs, libraries, writers, readers - All things Books! Books! Books!

A list dedicated to the life, works, and study of William Shakespeare. Includes many of the books featured on Shakespeare Unlimited, the podcast produced by the Folger Shakespeare Library.
