    I agree, bookstores and the book section of thrift stores are the the coolest!

    Your story made me smile. I know the feeling so well!



    And isn't it a real luxury to be able to spend all day (more or less) in a bookshop...

    I love reading about poetry and psychology too, but sometimes I do like to read a bit of chick lit just to relax the mind :)

    I read everything... except novels... it has been a long time since I've read much fiction... but biography... memoirs... poetry... psychology (self-help...I've read almost every title out there... could counsel anyone... lol)... and spiritual... lately I've been at the New Age shelves... I've become quiet a mystic...

    I never think to check out the bargain section. Has anyone ever tried "the works" book shop? It's not like a proper book store but they have hundreds of books for brilliant prices - when I go in there I come out with at least ten books LOL

    won't happen. that's why i always leave bookstores with at least one book, to make sure we're all good and safe.

    i always come out with a book because otherwise the universe would implode. it's a heavy responsibility.

    I still feel really cheeky though, I think thats why I always come out with a book, makes me feel less guilty about spending so many hours in there!
