Book Nook
A crooked little bookshop with a shy ghost.
A warm reading room and books with their own ideas.
Resident Boo, the shy ghost librarian
Book Nook
Book Nook is a crooked little bookshop with an open book for a roof, a warm window glowing on the wall and a reading lamp that is always on. Stacks of second-hand books lean against the walls, and the whole place looks like it has been waiting for you to finish a chapter.
Boo is the shy ghost librarian who keeps the shelves. Boo has excellent taste in novels and a strong opinion about bookmarks, and collects good sentences the way other people collect stamps. A moth keeps Boo company by the lamp after closing time.
Use the nook for a bookshop front, a reading list or a page for a book club. Leave a little paper star drifting overhead and a letter in the mailbox for anyone who came looking.
