It is definitely quieter away from the main streets and this is a delightful way to spend some time – getting our of the heat during the summer months.

Was there once with my family when I was a kid and never dared to go back since. However, this bookstore looks like total heaven. As a booknerd myself, I’d love to hang out here for a while, escaping the crowds…

It has taken me years to find this little place even though I have known of its existence! Next time I visit I am sure that I will still get lost in the maze of narrow streets trying to find it but I think that is part of the fun when it comes to visiting Venice! 🙂

The fact that the owner has added a reading corner on the patio means that you can in fact spend as long as you like there reading – dangerous for any bibliophile!

Tim, in comparison to many bookshops I have visited this is in fact one of the smallest but I truly believe that it probably holds more books than many of the larger ones! 🙂

Navigational skills are definitely required to find this one! The great thing is that there are plenty of cafes along the route to experience as well if you need to take a break! 🙂

I think this deserves a trip. It looks amazing, and I’m sure half of the fun will be finding it!

Actually I don’t know how little it is but that was just a term of endearment. It looks awesome. Steps made out of books…that’s very cool…as long as you don’t want to read them 🙂

What a find, I’d love to explore the shelves and sit for hours reading. I know where I’m heading when I finally make it to Venice!

I didn’t see it while I was there this summer, but when I go back I need to seek this place out! Thanks for sharing.
