Q8books

Besides nature and long days outdoors, one of the things we miss most while living in Kuwait is hanging out in libraries and bookstores.  Back home in Canada, Miss G and I visited our local library weekly.  We’d make a morning of it, curling up to read several books before selecting 25 or so to take home.  She’d sign them out at the check-out computer herself using her very own library card and then we’d do it all again the next week. We loved our library routine.  On top of that, many rainy mornings were spent visiting our local bookstores.  We’d browse, play, read books, and then pick one or two favourites to take home to add to our collection – a pretty fine way to spend our soggy days, I’d say.  Here in Kuwait it’s not quite the same.  While there are {some} bookstores and small libraries, most are filled primarily with Arabic books {rightfully so} and the English books that do exist are often of the cheap, generic variety.  There is, however, Q8books, a very cool little used bookshop we finally made time to find and this afternoon.
