I totally like these ads for “The Crime & Detective Bookshop”. The way the characters are pictured makes it all seem so ‘doom and dark’, whilst at the same time some elements in the ad are so disarmingly charming. The atmosphere these ads evoke is exactly what expect from a store that specializes in this genre of novels. More of these, please :) and I also wish there was a bookstore in my neighborhood that breathes this sort of sphere. Then I’d spend more time there. Every store in my town is so clinically lighted and totally not pleasant to stay at. It feels like a warehouse instead of a grocery store. That should change.
