I am obsessed with Art books but also have plenty of cooking books. I was gifted "Borough Market: The Knowledge: Produce – Skills – Recipes" and bought "The Borough Market Cookbook: Recipes and Stories from a Year at the Market" on my Kindle. Recently, I purchased "Borough Market: Edible Histories: Epic tales of everyday ingredients." I know it may seem like I have a little obsession with Borough Market, but I used to live in London and loved going there. Last summer, I spent a month in London and made a mental note to get the books. I also buy a lot of second-hand books on https://www.wob.com/. It's way cheaper, and I somehow like buying used books, knowing someone else read them and that they were in someone else's house. Which is your local library? I'm disappointed that there isn't a library with more English books, as I only read in English. Nevertheless, I got a library card last year but haven't returned it since then haha. There are too many books already at home that I am trying to get through, which I will probably never do in my lifetime, but it is better to surround yourself with books than clothes.
I used to be strict about my ‘books to read next’ shelf. Now it’s a small collection that keeps on growing... The library I go to is the American Memorial Library in front of Halesches Tor, plenty of English books in there!
I’m going to dive into wob.com because I love used books as well. Thanks for sharing about The Borough Market! Never heard of it, and now I blame you for all the research this demands 😮💨
