I actually felt like leaving the house today. I read my last book. So I had started another one on my phone. But it just feels wrong reading on my phone in bed. I need a real book for that place. I had a couple of disappointments on amazon with books that I ordered through them. Totally annoys me to get a "short story" by itself and having paid for a book. I don't mind short stories but I want them in a book with other short stories. I will probably try again at some point but for now I needed a book store.
The last time I was in Barnes & Nobles I was absolutely shocked at the prices of new paperbacks and refused to buy one. I found a few hardbacks by my favorite authors for a greatly reduced price....like half of a paperback and bought those. So I now need a used bookstore.
Off I went to Literary Leftovers in BG. You can't sell books back to them anymore as it was not profitable for them. I get that. Would have been a great way to not accumulate so many books though. Anyway I played with their cat. I found eight books to tide me over for awhile and they gave me a puzzle. I'm happy. And I can read my book on my phone the next time I fly. Seems to work well in that space.
