I came across this picture of a rather insane book store earlier today and it immediately reminded me of the residence of a certain Yomiko Readman of “Read or Die” fame. The similarities are striking but goodness knows how they get away with the health and safety aspect of having thousands of books stacked this way 😉
The film and tv series are well worth watching; of course, reading the manga would be even better! More pictures of the crazy shop can be found here.
In unrelated news, I’ll be starting my rather rigorous jet-lag avoidance experiment tomorrow whereby I’ll be getting up and going to bed an hour earlier, progressively each day pushing my body clock closer to Korea time (GMT +9). By Friday I should be getting up at 2 am, ouch!! If you’re in the UK, enjoy the bank holiday tomorrow!
