We love it! 😍 And this love has been going on for 10 years!

On September 1, 2016, our library began its journey with the creation of the “Book Club Reboot” group.

What started as a simple idea — “What if I start collecting books and organize a library in Sharm?” — slowly turned into something much bigger.

At the beginning, the books lived in a big drawer. The first shelves were found at a dump, transformed, and eventually became home to a growing collection. Over the years, there were moves, new spaces, more and more books and, most importantly, the first readers who are still visiting us today!

Ten years later, the library has grown far beyond that original idea. It has become not only a place to borrow books, but also a space for events, meeting other readers, and discovering new hobbies.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of these 10 years and to everyone who is becoming part of our story today. To our readers, friends, supporters, and those who have ever taken a book from our shelves: this journey wouldn’t be the same without you 🫶

Happy 10th birthday to our library! 🎉 Let’s keep opening new chapters together! 📚❤️

Fan of “Bridgerton” or “Downton Abbey”? Or maybe you loved “Gone Girl”? We have a few ideas to help you keep the good story going but this time, with a book 😍

We’ve put together a few titles that might give you similar feelings, from romance and social intrigue to dark secrets and psychological twists.

And the best part? You can find all of these books at our library 😉

📚 Try “Pride and Prejudice” by Jane Austen if you loved “Bridgerton”. A witty romantic story of love, social expectations, misunderstandings, and the search for the perfect match.

📚 Try “The Girl on the Train” by Paula Hawkins if you loved “Gone Girl”. A gripping psychological thriller full of secrets, unreliable narrators, and twists that keep you guessing.

📚 Try “Forgive Me” by Lesley Pearse if you loved “Downton Abbey”. A moving story of family, love, social class, and a woman’s strength in the face of life’s challenges.

Follow us for more bookish content and reading inspiration! ❤️

Which book influenced Elon Musk’s philosophy?
And what does 42 mean? Let’s start with the second question 👇

42 is the «Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything». At least, that’s what the supercomputer answers in Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. There’s just one problem: nobody knows what the actual question was.

This idea particularly resonated with Elon Musk. He has said that he read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy as a teenager, when he was trying to make sense of the meaning of life. And the book helped him formulate an important idea: the goal is not to find the answers, but to learn how to ask the right questions.

Perhaps that’s the book’s greatest charm. Behind its absurd humour and science fiction, Douglas Adams hides some very serious questions about the meaning of life, human nature, and our place in the universe.

And it’s not just one book, but a “trilogy in five parts.” And yes, that’s not a typo. It’s another Douglas Adams joke: a trilogy that somehow has five parts.

🚀 And if you’re ready to hitchhike your way across the Galaxy, you can start right here in our library — the book is available in both Russian and English.

Какая книга повлияла на философию Илона Маска? И что значит 42? Начнём со второго вопроса 👇

42 — это «Ответ на главный вопрос жизни, Вселенной и всего остального». По крайней мере, так ответил суперкомпьютер в книге «Автостопом по галактике» Дугласа Адамса. Проблема только в одном: никто не знает, каким был сам вопрос.

Именно эта идея заинтересовала Илона Маска. Он рассказывал, что прочитал «Автостопом по галактике» ещё подростком, когда пытался разобраться в смысле жизни. И книга помогла ему сформулировать важ�

Мы можем говорить на разных языках, но влюбляться в одни и те же истории 🤍

Вряд ли Джейн Остин могла представить, что спустя два столетия её роман будут читать на русском, английском, французском и ещё десятках языков. Да и Рэй Брэдбери, скорее всего, даже не предполагал, сколько читателей однажды откроют «451° по Фаренгейту» в переводе.

Так, истории путешествуют гораздо дальше своих авторов. Они меняют язык, обложку, иногда даже название. Но продолжают влюблять в себя читателей.

В карусели — книги, которые живут на наших полках сразу в нескольких экземплярах. И каждая из них по-своему прекрасна на любом языке.

We may speak different languages, but fall in love with the same stories🤍

Jane Austen probably never imagined that, more than two centuries later, people would be reading her novel in Russian, English, French, and dozens of other languages. As for Ray Bradbury, he could hardly have predicted how many readers would one day discover «Fahrenheit 451» in translation.

That’s the remarkable thing about stories — they travel much farther than their authors ever could. They change languages, covers, and sometimes even titles. Yet they continue to capture readers’ hearts.

In this carousel, we’ve gathered just a few of the books that live on our shelves in multiple languages. And each one is just as captivating, no matter which language you read it in.

We have a little hobby we love — collecting great books. 📚

Every new title on our shelves is another chance for someone to find their perfect story. That’s why we are constantly growing our collection and looking for books that are truly worth discovering.

Little by little, that’s how our library grows. Our shelves are filled with contemporary novels, classics, non-fiction, and children’s tales — everything you need to always find something to read in Sharm, whatever your mood or taste.

And if you have books at home that you’ve already finished and that are simply waiting on a shelf, bring them to us. We’ll be happy to add them to our collection so they can find new readers! 🥰

📍Sharm El Sheikh, Old Market, right behind the Metro supermarket (you can find our exact location via the link in our bio)

Есть у нас любимое хобби — собирать хорошие книги. 📚

Каждая новая книга на наших полках — это ещё один шанс, что кто-то найдёт именно «свою» историю. Поэтому мы постоянно пополняем коллекцию и ищем произведения, которые действительно хочется читать. Так постепенно и растёт наша библиотека.

У нас есть современные романы, классика, нон-фикшн, детские рассказы — всё, чтобы в Шарме всегда было что почитать, независимо от настроения и вкуса.

И если у вас дома тоже есть книги, которые уже прочитаны и просто стоят на полке, приносите их к нам. Мы с радостью примем их в коллекцию, чтобы они нашли новых читателей! 🥰

📚 3 Stephen King stories worth both watching and reading

Stephen King’s books ignite the imagination. Their screen adaptations bring those stories to life. But one doesn’t replace the other: films capture the atmosphere, while the books let you dive deeper into the story and discover details that never make it to the screen.

In this reel, we’ve picked three Stephen King novels that have been adapted for the screen — and are well worth experiencing in both formats.

📖 You can find all the books featured in this video at our library in Sharm El Sheikh. Check the link in our bio for the exact location.

This is only the first part. We’ll be sharing more Stephen King books and their adaptations soon.

❓What about you — are you a “read-the-book-first” person, or do you prefer to watch the adaptation first?
