[Books Are My Bag @booksaremybag]

“It is clear that the books owned the shop rather than the other way about. Everywhere they had run wild and taken possession of their habitat, breeding and multiplying, and clearly lacking any strong hand to keep them down.”

― Agatha Christie, The Clocks

[Books Are My Bag @booksaremybag]

A good book can:

-Reduce stress
-Exercise your mind
-Offer wisdom
-Ease lockdown anxiety
-Increase empathy
-Help you switch off
-Prepare you for a good night’s sleep

Booksellers are on hand to prescribe the perfect book this #WorldBookDay
