@katie.the.reader: How to clean books properly (from someone who literally cleaned the Brontë sisters’ books). Here’s how to remove dust from your book edges without ruining them, the same method we used in museum conservation. Perfect for the book girlies, collectors, special edition hunters, and anyone who loves keeping their shelves pristine. #bookish #BookTok #specialeditionbooks #bookshelf #beautifulbooks

I'm lazy as hell I use a swiffer or whatever it's called and just quickly wipe it all over my shelves and books at the same time 💀

I take all my books off the shelves once a month. Clean the shelves and rearrange them. It's one of my favorite chores and they never get heavily dusty.

Loved your tips!💕 I have some box sets, but it's kind of tricky to take the books out and put them back in every time. Do you think it's okay to just clean the outside?✨
