Bookshelves on external wall

Hi all!

I’m hoping to get someone to put floating bookshelves on an external facing wall (i.e. the one with the French doors facing the garden). This is in a top floor flat.

Is drilling into and suspending shelves from an external wall risky? Can it increase the likelihood of damp/mould/poor insulation/other issues? I was thinking of ordering extra deep shelves so I can leave a gap between the wall and the books.

The other walls won’t work because of inconveniently placed lighting fixtures/plugs.

Thanks so much for your thoughts!
😊
