Book Diary

If you love books you’ll want to share them with friends – give them as a present, lend or borrow them. You’ll want to make notes about things you read and you’ll want to find out what makes a beautiful book. So if you love books you need a book diary, one that is both practical and designed with loving care. And if you want beautiful pictures as well wouldn’t Rotraut Susanne Berner just be the perfect choice?

A calendar where you can mark birthdays and similar occasions for giving books, a list of whom you’ve lent books to and whose books you’ve borrowed, another one with the titles of the books you’ve already given as presents (in order to avoid those embarrassing repeats!), room to note the books you’ve read and the names of your favourite bookshops, as well as a short glossary of book-lore – the book diary offers all this. Rotraut Susanne Berner’s pictures celebrate the joy a book can give, and the publishers have lavished love and care on its design. But it’s up to its users to breathe life into it thus making it his or her most personal of books.
