If Aladdin had a magic book which contained a bookish wish granting genie every time it was opened, I would be on a quest to find this book.

When I began writing this list, I thought I would struggle to come up with 10 specific wishes. By the end I was having trouble choosing which 10 wishes to put into my ultimate bookish wishes.
I have finally settled on these:
1. The original manuscript of 1001 Arabian Nights
2. A guided tour of Hogwarts by J.K. Rowling
3. An endless book buying budget and infinite library space
4. A list of the books I read as a child and teenager - for reference and to re-visit
5. The ability to experience reading Harry Potter for the first time
6. A book nook in my room
7. To know the meaning of every word
8. The ability to speed read and still take in all the information
9. To have signed, first-edition copies of all the books on my book shelves
10. To be able to speak to characters once the book has finished
Leave a comment and let me know your top 10 bookish wishes! Good luck narrowing them down...
