With the arrival of the Kindle, we thought that we’d finally solved the problem of bulky bags full of holiday reads, costing an arm and a leg to check in. But isn’t it true that some of us miss the sand between the pages experience of holding an actual book?

Visit one of the libraries on beaches from Bulgaria (Black Sea resort) to Australia (Bondi Beach) and start borrowing!
