“LEave a book, take a book?”

[cruisestitch]

Do any of the ships have a library or a “leave a book, take a book” shelves anywhere?

Hi cruisestitch, yes there’s a bookshelf in the Drawing Room (Library) for just this. It’s located inside the door on the starboard side...in front of Prime C on deck 10. That’s where you can also pickup the daily crossword and sudoku puzzles.

Thank you!

I’ll add that into the ‘Tips’ topic & spreadsheet.

Great place to browse...not only books but also up to date and recent magazines for reading whilst lazing by the pool.

It’s a great concept. Bring a book to read and leave. If you are lucky, you may find a good book   In the library. However, with so many people reading ebooks, there are fewer printed books being read. Hope that you find something interesting. I had a great time reading the Japanese comic books. They are fun. You don’t need to understand Japanese to understand them.

I thought the drawing room/library on Journey was amazing!  Such a beautiful room and a lot more books than I usually see on a ship.

Pursuit's library/drawing room is also quite lovely.  There are loads of books, well-shelved, and of course the "take a book, leave a book" table.  Also, Pursuit's Den sports a very nice selection of coffee-table type and newer travel books.  They're tucked into shelves along walls or at the ends of tables, and I found them to be invitingly displayed and well worth a browse.

My spouse and I still like printed books, and usually bring a couple each onboard. It’s great to have the swap shelves in the library for the Luddites among us!

The Journey library is wonderful for a small ship.   It is also a lovely area.
