    Mrs. Dalloway is one of my all time favorites too. My husband bought the annotated edition you are talking about, for me for my birthday last year and I just love this edition so much. I obviously also really love my 1928 Modern Library edition too. :) Geeking on books is the best! This bookshop looks wonderful! Oh to be in England.

    I may have drooled a little (or a lot) while watching this video. Putting this on my list for places to stop when I can travel to the UK again. Thanks for sharing. 😊💙

    Thank you for taking us along, it looks so idyllic 😊. Is it just me or does everyone feel like bookshops are always better in other cities or countries ? A kind of grass is greener, but with bookshops. I'm sure that plenty of people would say bookshops in Paris are so nice, but actually there are so few I enjoy, and keep drooling over videos of bookshops here on BookTube 😂 Tell me it's not just me... 🙄

    That is a stunning shop! I wouldn't have wanted to leave ❤️ Wow, such a gorgeous copy. That portrait is so beautiful. ❤️ After you read it I'd love to hear about your favorite aspects of this copy.

    I saved the bookshop to my favourites, when I will be nearby again in future times, I will most definitely visit!

    i'm planning a trip to london, and this bookstore was already one of the very few places i knew i absolutely wanted to go. so excited when i saw this video to confirm that. :D

    What a gorgeous book shop! I love the little height chart with the book characters 💖 those editions of the classics like Madam Bovery are beautiful. Leaving with only one book is amazing self restraint 🤣

    Thanks for another lovely video, Claire. I've had St. Albans on my list for a day trip last two times I've been over in London (live in Philadelphia), but haven't made it. I will definitely get there and to this bookshop as well on my very next trip! I have my own author/book obsessions and so I thoroughly appreciate your enthusiasm for Mrs. D.

    That bookshop looks like book heaven. So many classics old and new editions. I collect the Chiltern Classics and then I saw all the old classics in the video and I confess to pausing to try and read some of the titles.

  • @korean_foot_traveler8655

    There are many books which have nice covers. The pretty design arouses desire to open books.😀👍👍

    Love Books on the Hill!
    Did you also venture to Oxfam Books? It's the opposite end to BotH, and is one of the best ones in Hertfordshire! I always find a good book or few in there :)

    What a beautiful bookshop! And gorgeous edition of Mrs Dalloway. Were you aware of its existence before you found it there? Or was it FATE? :D

    Okay, now I'm very curious about my bookish height! 😂
