  1. Now that is what a book­store is sup­posed to look like! I’ve al­ways en­joyed the way it feels to roam the aisles of a used book­store. Not looking for any­thing in par­tic­ular, let­ting the book (okay lets face it books) find you rather than you finding them.

    It’s a feeling that has been lost in the dig­ital world of kin­dles, tablets and in­stant grat­i­fi­ca­tion (I con­fess I do use, and enjoy, a kindle).

    There is also no feeling quite like turning ac­tual pages and feeling the weight of a book but­ter­flied open in your hands.

      Yup, every town should have one!

      Any format that gets people reading is a good format.

      That said, a book with open­able pages is still the BEST format for reading ...
