Little Black Library Malmö – For the bookworms in us

"The "Little Black Library" in Malmö is your solution if you're looking for something to read and have an old book you can leave for someone else to enjoy!"

Imagine you're on holiday in Malmö and the book you bought at an airport a while ago is now finished. You don't need it anymore and you're looking for something new to read. Well look no further! I have the solution to your conundrum. You don't have to be stuck with nothing to read anymore.

There is a place like no other in Malmö. Once my friend told me about it, I just got on a bike and went to check it out. The principle is easy. You have a book you don't need anymore and maybe you are on a lookout for something new, you simply go there and make the exchange.

It's not a big thing but it's very practical for all of us bookworms.

I am already preparing some books that I have read and don't want to keep so that I exchange them for something new. The books are not only in Swedish, I have noticed a few ones in English and there is a section for children's books as well. If you have a wish, there is a notebook for you to write down a title and the owners may be able to chase it down for you. That, of course, is more of a benefit to us locals.

I have heard about places like that in other cities and I find them fantastic. It’s all about sharing a passion for books with other human readers.
