Bookworm Droppings

A small recommendation: The Book Guide, a very good resource on all aspects of secondhand books in the UK, has a page relating to Bookworm Droppings. Drawn from the book series of that name, it provides a few online examples of the strange interactions that take place between booksellers and customers. In the year or so I've been working in the bookshop in Topsham, I can't say I've had any spectacularly odd conversations, but a surprisngly large number of people do ask "do you sell books?" and similar.
