If there’s one dream that unites all bookish folks (aside from, you know, universal literacy) it’s the dream of having a secret passageway hidden behind a bookcase. Ok, maybe it just unites some of us- but there’s no denying that there’s something super-nifty about having a bookcase that
moves to reveal a space only you know about. You and your builder.
Anywoot! Here’s a roundup of ten of my favorite bookish secret passageways from around the interwebs:
