23.01.2022 We love these old Time Life food books from around the world. Beautiful photography, hip 1970s style global cuisine, and lovely narratives about food culture in each country. No prizes for matching these covers with their regions, but we encourage participation. #foodsoftheworld #secondhandbooks #recycledreads

22.01.2022 Feeling my age a bit today... #ageingwithbooks #secondhandbooks #youreonlyasoldasthebooksyouread

19.01.2022 Rare and precious, a first edition #michaeldransfield. #australianpoetry #oldbooks #secondhandbookshop treasures.

17.01.2022 Big news over the lockdown! I became grandmother to a baby beagle. If you’re looking for any beagle-related books this week, you’ll find the section empty. All other sections are packed full of gems, and we’re open as usual from Tuesday at 10am. #regularopeninghours #secondhandbooks and #brandnewpuppies

16.01.2022 Today’s #lockdownreading from @imprintsbooksellers stays on the paranormal theme. It’s about a woman whose rage and trauma manifests as dangerous poltergeists. I think we can all relate as we watch today’s covid update. Surely we’ve hit #peak2020 now.

14.01.2022 We’re having a run in chess books! Thanks to the wonderful #thequeensgambit (read it and watch it!), chess seems to be having a new moment. Lots of the old classics have already gone, but we’ve still got some gems, if you’re quick. #chessbooks #oldbooks #secondhandbooks #hurryhurryhurry

12.01.2022 Roses straight from the garden of our oldest customer, Brian, who comes in every week. In his late 90s and still devouring books. #secondhandbooks #reading #shoplocal

09.01.2022 Why cook on Xmas day? Let Adam do it for you (we’ve been doing that for years and it’s perfection). They do fantastic vegan /GF / alt options as well. Rest up and read your Christmas books instead!

05.01.2022 Day 1 of lockdown, reading through some bookshop stock I’ve been saving up. So today I’ve been brushing up on my fortune telling skills, and enjoying an old ufology classic. Seems a good time for dipping into the unexpected and the inexplicable. #lockdownreading #secondhandbooks #metaphysics

02.01.2022 Piles of new #crimefiction on the shelves. Great to distract you from all the real criminals trotting around on political stages at the moment. #freshbooks #recycledreads #secondhandbooks

02.01.2022 So happy to be back in the shop! Open Tuesday to Saturday 10am o 5pm. We’re all in today unpacking lots of fresh books. #secondhandbooks #secondhandbookshop #shoplocal

02.01.2022 I have 3 pageant tickets because ... well it’s a long story that I won’t bore you with. Does anyone want them or know someone who wants them? It’s at Adelaide Oval at 7pm tomorrow night.
