Reading, writing and adorable little notebooks

It makes us happy to see happy things happening to people we know, particularly when those people are the kind of happy folks good things should happen to. Which basically means: We were ecstatic to see a full-page write-up and photo of our favorite Singapore bookstore, the wonderful Books Actually (which, you may remember, we gushed about last year), in the newest Wallpaper magazine. (That's a snippet of the page above.) Congrats to owners Karen and Kenny; it was only a matter of time before their charming little gifty things and fantastic selection was more than just a local secret. I only wish the store was just a little closer to my apartment; it's been way too long since I dropped in to see what's new.
