Literally heaven in a bookshop in Hoi An, Vietnam, September 2017

And, yes, this might be more literary than literal, but a relaxed approach to the theme is welcome.
Over to all of you to join the challenge with your own literal post.

Your photo is wonderful. The blue paint really makes this photo and it’s book pop.
Here is my entry for this week.

This was a tough one, Debbie, but here’s mine. I like your literally literal response. I have almost enough books in my house to start a small used bookstore. 🙂 Now I just need a designated library room.

I’ve taken the word literally.
And there’s something about old books, isn’t there?

I thought being literal might be tough for you Tom 😉 But you got it spot on!

I am German. We do not take things relaxed! – No, seriously (sic!) I had so much fun yesterday of looking through my pics and matching them with various sayings to see if they could be taken literally. https://wordpress.com/post/picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/13410 But books are always good. I guess most of those in your photo came as holiday reading with tourists into the country. Interesting.
