A big shout out to all our visitors and supporters of Sprinkle the Street Library . We honestly get so excited when we see that books have been taken from or left in the library or we see someone visiting. The library is always left so tidy and neat and we just so appreciate YOU.

There’s a lot wrong with the world. And it can feel overwhelming. And scary. And hard. And there are lots of ways to resist, stand up, stay strong, and fight back. Our way of fighting back might seem small and insignificant, but to us, keeping these lights on inside this little Ann Arbor corner bookshop is an act of resistance. Because a bookstore is in itself an act of resistance. It is a belief that literature can birth empathy, that words can heal, that voices can change, that curated books and thoughtful writing are important. No, bookstores can’t and won’t save the world. But we believe good books can, at least, help. And so, as best we can, we keep reading, we keep recommending, we keep that door open, and as best we can, we keep those lights on.

I have recently been fortunate to travel to Borneo and Malaysia. I loved visiting these regions for all the beautiful flora and fauna. 🦧🪷

I was staying in a town called Ipoh and
I was curious about a bookshop that i discovered on Google. Before we arrived in the town of Ipoh and instead of following the crowd to the usual tourist spots I was intent on finding this. My first job was in a bank and it brought back memories of "strong rooms" (ie vault where the money is locked up) and multiple filing drawers for all that paperwork.

I even got caught in a sudden rain storm without a brolly...everyone thought I was crazy and I guess I am! It was well worth it for all the above reasons and to have a good old sniff at real books (i love the smell of books! 🤣) and yes I bought a book!

Is there anyone else out there who will do anything to smell a book?!!
