I just want to sit in a bookshop and breathe. That’s all. Just flip through used books and study the titles in a section I don’t normally frequent. Maybe find a good western or a coffee table book about a painter I don’t yet know.
Bookstores are special places. They’re portals into new worlds, rocket ships to places only our imaginations can construct.
Oh, to just stand amidst the books and breathe!
The picture above comes from a bookshop in Little Switzerland, North Carolina. Read about that surprisingly amazing experience here!
Nothing like a bookstore to spend a lazy Saturday. So many have gone out of business because people prefer to buy online
I buy online sometimes because I don’t live close to a bookstore and because it’s sometimes hard to find what I want in person. However, I much prefer to shop with a smaller business – even if it means paying a few bucks more – just to help keep them going.
I’m hooked on Waterstones
Waterstones…..Is that the big one in the UK?
Oh sorry, yes I’m from the uk 🇬🇧- Waterstones is the most loved bookshop, followed by WHSmiths xxx
I will keep this in mind if I ever make it over there! Great tip!!
You wouldn’t be disappointed 😃
Music to my ears!!!
Are you on Goodreads?
I have an account but rarely think to use it. I try….
Be sure to stop in Maria’s while you’re in Durango. I know you’ve been to the secondhand store, but you won’t find my book there. 😉
Yes!! I loved Maria’s! I bought a couple of interesting things there last year! I hope that you will sign my book. 🙂
