Hi guys, I’m back with another Bookporn post 😉

You  can check out the other two posts here: Bookshelves and How To Be Cozy 

I’ve always loved seeing libraries featuring in the animated series or in movies, now here are all the places to find them 😀

        YESSS I DO!! 😍 I just need to plan how to get there, as I would most likely need a car (which I don’t have). Sooo I’ll have to persuade my father to go with me, which shouldn’t be that hard. 😉 You definitely need to!!

    This is such an amazing post Trang, there are so many fictional libraries I have loved and the fact that there are some of them that can be found in real life is beyond amazing! I need to add some of these places to my must-travel-to list, especially the Beauty and the Beast library in Austria, that looks so gorgeous in real life and I’ve always loved the film as well! 😀
