I work in a bookstore and I often sit with a book and coffee in a little nook at the back of the store legs tucked under, reading a new book. It probably sounds boring to many but to me it’s heaven

There is something about the odor of a book store, particularly an old one. It is so sad that they are all closing. I love walking around and looking at old books.

@Charlottefun when I was in my fellowship, I sued to love walking in the old book/journal area of the Harvard Medical School library. It was so much fun picking up a book or journal from 2 centuries ago. I don't think they let you do that anymore.

@Charlottefun what kind of book store do you work in? A modern Barnes and Nobles, or an old fashioned local store?

@samueltyler2 [@its an independent store fairly modern we specialize in mysteries which continue to sell in book form

@Charlottefun That is an interesting way to sell, a specialty book store. I don't read much fiction, but when I do, I do enjoy mysteries, historical fiction or medical.
