Questions people ask
Do I need to leave a deposit or my passport?
No. You pay the $5 when you collect the book and that is the end of it.
What if I am leaving Dahab before the 7 days are up?
Message
me before you book and we will sort something out, it is better
to ask than to leave with the book.
What if I lose or ruin the book?
Tell me. Sand and
seawater happen. We will agree on a fair replacement cost rather than
pretend it did not.
Can I suggest a book you do not have?
Yes, there is a box for it on the form. Suggestions are how the shelf grows.
Is everything in English?
Yes, the entire shelf is currently in English; however, we plan to add books in other languages in the near future.
Still not sure?
Ask me anything before you book, what is on the shelf this week, whether a
short loan works, where exactly to meet.
