One day, I will get rhe doors of my 24 hour secondhand bookshop open, and I have many, many ideas for what you'll be able to find behind them. Yet, I'm always looking for more features to make the shop even more special, so let me know what you'd like to see. #bookshop #booksky #ideas #letmeknow

These bookmarks will, naturally, be complimentary, just like the ones that I send out with every order. #bookmark #idea #ihaveanidea #bookshop #booksky #booklight

Cookbooks are not the biggest sellers, but this one definitely has some fire behind it. #gordonramsay #recipes #cookbook #ilovebooks #booksky #booklight

I had to fight every urge that told me me to keep this gorgeous book, but alas, off it goes to someone else. #beautifulbook #ilovebooks #smallbusiness #smallbusinesscheck #booksky

Sit with me whilst I research and list some of the gorgeous books from this box. #sitwithme #ilovebooks #smallbusinesscheck #smallbusiness #booksky #booklight

Listing books can be a long and frustrating process, but every book sold gets us closer to getting those doors open. #books #smallbusiness #listing #behindthescenes #booksky #booklight

Changing how I stock my shop may be a little bit risky, but hopefully it'll pay off in the long run. #kofi #stock #dangerous #smallbusiness #booksky #booklight

A glow-in the dark bookmark on its way out, reminding me maybe its time to experiment with some more glow in the dark resin creations. #bookmark #resin #package #eco #booksky #booklight

A lil' bit o' speedy book wrapping asmr to cleanse your ears and break up your doom scrolling #asmr #bookmail #wrapping #asmrsounds #booksky #booklight

and a lot of painful finger/wrist joints. #itcostthatmuch #resin #bookish #ilovebooks #booksky #booklight

This one promises to be a very abstract read, you know where to find it. #thebookofdave #tattoodesign #reading #bookworm #booksky #booklight

Local elections have more of a visible impact on your day-to-day life than general elections will, so make sure you're thinking of not just yourself, but your friends, your family and even your neighbours. #vote #localelections #votegreen #booksky #booklight

It happens, from time to time, that my voice likes to simply go for a wander. #bookworm #speechless #bookish #bookshop #booksky #booklight

Please enjoy two hours of resin pouring squashed down into 1/2 minutes. #resin #resinart #bookish #bookworm #booksky #booklight

Can you name any of these tiny London-base havens that I hope one day to be a part of? #london #bookshops #photos #whereami #booksky #booklight

Posting this to remind myself to make some more. I remember making this video soon after I was sent of sick leave, two years ago, back when I was atill capable of reading. #onthisday #resin #pages #reading #booksky #booklight

Is it a pointless practice? Only if it doesn't make you happy. #ifitmakesyouhappy #books #shelfie #multiple #booksky #booklight

My name is Ali. I want to open a 24 hour secondhand bookshop in the heart of London, with a cafe, rooftop greenhouse to read under the stars or in the rain, private study booths, and safe space for those in need. I could use your support I have shops and socials if you're interested #promosky

Send out this stunningly gorgeous book with me. #bookmail #asmr #packaging #beautiful #booksky #booklight

And unforgettable classic that deserves a new home. #aliceinwonderland #reading #bookshop #ilovebooks #booksky #booklight

Also, down with AI. I know that this will loose me followers but I'd rather clean house and start again than rely on a foundation that holds no support. #lgbtqia #left #support #humanrights #booksky #booklight

This was a non-fiction blind date with a book, I sent out recently, would you be happy with this selection? (despite me blind picking it from the non-fiction section) #blinddatewithabook #wrapping #mindfulness #bookworm #booksky #booklight

Hardly surprising tbh, although, you've got to assume they'll just include it in the updated t&cs 🤔 #ai #tiktok #wasteoftime #smallbusiness #booksky #booklight

Any green business tips are always more than welcome. #green #recycle #carbonfootprint #smallbusiness #booksky #booklight

A beautifully blue collection of books on their way to a new home. #blue #bluebook #bookmail #wrapping #booksky #booklight

I've made a sound for any small bookish business to use, primarily myself. #sound #smallbusiness #bookshop #shelfie #booksky #booklight

Yes, I know, my bookshop shelves need a reorganise, I'll get to it, I promise 😃 #shelfie #bookshop #booktokchallenge #bookchallenge #booksky #booklight

It's "take your followers to work with you" day, didn't you know? #Vinted #TikTokMadeMeBuyIt #smallbusiness #bookshop #booksky #booklight

The final season is over, but someone is just starting their journey. #heroacademia #bookmail #manga #smallbusiness #booksky #booklight

What feels like an age ago, I made a little advert for my shop. Please ignore the spelling of the word "happiness" 😅 #onthisday #advert #smallbusiness #bookshop #booksky #booklight
