...which even has a famous Japanese bookseller's label inside! I'd like to know about this book's journey.

Graceful South Asian woman in a series of refined, domestic vignettes—surrounded by books, plants, vintage décor, and soft lighting. The tone is intimate and intelligent, evoking quiet confidence, cultural depth, and creative solitude.

 

Her hair is styled in a sleek bob, parted to the side and gently curled. Her skin is warm olive in tone, smooth and glowing under soft ambient light. Her face is sculpted and expressive, with intelligent eyes, natural brows, and subtle makeup—showcasing strength, elegance, and self-assurance.

 

Her figure is slender yet curvy, with poised posture and relaxed hand gestures that convey calm and poise. Her outfits vary: from a denim-on-denim casual look to rust-hued tunics and coral draped shawls—suggesting an Indo-Western aesthetic. Each ensemble is earthy and flattering, accessorised with gold bangles, hoop earrings, chunky watches, and the occasional ethnic necklace, grounding her style in both modernity and heritage.

 

The setting includes indoor plants, soft furnishings, framed photographs, classic books, and vintage tech (like a black-and-white TV)—giving the feel of an intellectual, feminine space. Her heritage appears to be British-Indian or South Asian, and the atmosphere is one of cultural richness blended with contemporary design.

Home Library Service readers and volunteers get into the Christmas spirit at the annual get-together.

"Walk across the courtyard

Towards the library

I can hear the insects buzz on the leaves, 'neath my feet

 

Ramble up the stairwell

To the hall of books

Since we got the interweb these hardly get used"

 

"Librarian," song by My Morning Jacket

At home with books

My former colleagues gave me a Powell's gift card when I left. This is the resulting bounty (minus a water bottle for M).

via Instagram ift.tt/2vSCdKu What. The. Fuck. Once upon a time I had one copy of @cory_doctorow 's "someone comes to town..." and it walked off likely of its own volition. If you're familiar you know what I mean.) I since replaced it, but if you look closely, a second copy has appeared. Whaaaaat. Your books have a mind of their own, Mr Doctorow. . . . . #books #doctorow #nerdsunday #homelibrary
