I have a passion for bookstores. They have such a different vibe than libraries, since all of those books could come home at any minute to live with me. I remember the joy of working at Waldenbooks in a pre-Amazon world. I could look up any book I wanted and order it and it would come, and I'd get my employee discount and my employer would yet again get back the bulk of my paycheck. Brilliant times, that.

I love bookstores, too. I'm glad to have learned that the big B&N is still open. I expect to spend many hours there.
