Book-shopping

I envy you Jo being able to go to all the nicest and best bookstores my friend..I remember buying a book at Brown and Thomas in Grafton Street in Dublin..I still have it..The Whoseday Book in aid of the Irish Hospice Foundation..I am keeping it to pass on to my Son. He loves the book and wants it..if he was nearer I would give it to him now but I will not put it in the post as I would be afraid it would get lost...(((((Jo)))oxooxo I am happy to know someone else who knows the beauty of the Irish bookstores. xoxoox We have a lot in commone Jo.:) Thanks for being my friend here.

I miss having big bookstores to shop at! Growing up there were quite a few decent-sized ones near me, but where I live now there aren't.

My town has a Book World and a B. Dalton, neither of which are horribly large. When I worked at the mall, I found myself in B. Dalton pretty much every day, either before or after work, but the lack of selection was pretty depressing. All the same, I would gaze longingly at books that I couldn't afford at the moment!

I tend to do book shopping online these days, actually. While I love just wandering around browsing in a good bookstore, shopping online is nice because you can read reviews from other readers, and you can find some pretty awesome deals too.

I'm the same way. I buy books by the dozen! I recently moved and when I was packing my stuff, I noticed books that I had bought years ago which I still haven't read. Sometimes I buy more than my eyes can physically read. Kind of like in a buffet - my eyes always have a bigger appetite than my stomach!

In the States, I loved going to an old mom and pop used bookstore. Those hardly don't exist anymore because of the big chains. I used to like buying at Crown, Waldenbooks and B Dalton. Nowadays, you'd have to buy your books at Costco or WalMart - they offer lower prices.

In Mexico, I'm stuck with Sanborns. I speak spanish, but, I don't like to read books in spanish. The longest my attention span will allow me to read in spanish is some news articles in the daily paper. So, I'm stuck with Sanborns because they sell books in English. And sometimes the WalMart and Costco in Mexico also sell books in English, just depends.

We have a bookstore in a nearby city that is so neat. There is a coffee shop there, and also it is similar to a library, but there are lounging chairs, and benches to sit on to read if you want to. There is no pressure to buy if you don't want to, you can just read and relax for hours if you want to. The name of the bookstore is Borders, and it is a wonderful place to shop for a book.

I love going to Barns and Noble to purchase books. I find that books take me all over the world and experience different cultures. I also love self developement books as they help me grow and nurture myself into becoming the person I desire to be. They are other booqkstore in Huntsville which are cozy as Barns and Noble such BooksaMillion but it musat be the Star bucks in B&N t5hat keeps me coming back.

I use to read a lot more when I was in school but then I got busy and just did not make time for me and my books! I love to read though...I love getting into the story so much that it feels like you are there with the people in the story! I use to have a book subscription with I can't even remember what company it was. I would get three or four books a month (you get to pick the style of books you read...I read suspense/romance combos) and you would get these books for a nice price!! It kept me from having to go to a ok store and look at titles ( I get really bored just looking at books) but they made the choice in which book I got every month and I loved it!! So, if you love to buy books and want to save some money maybe you should think about a subscription. At the begining of the one I was with they would send me a pretty purple wine glass with each months books. Now I have a set! LOL!

I also like reading and I often buy books from Amazon.cn and it provides a better price and it delivers to me free of charge. I am satisifed with it. In fact I also bought a toy from this website, too.

In Mississippi I love to go to Books A Million. My husband and I would go there all the time.

Here in New Jersey we go to Barnes and Noble. Our daughter loves to play with the trains in the kids section now so it has become much easier to take her there. Before, she would cry and want to leave.

We also have a Border's but we just don't like the way it is set up. Plus they don't seem to have a great selection. We have only gone there a couple of times.

I love how the bookstores are all open pretty late.

I actually get mine of Ebay or the second hand shop
But lately it has been Ebay as they have all the books that I still want and they are cheaper

I dont like buying books.I dont read any book more than once.So I prefer taking books from the library.
