It wasn't my neighborhood bookstore. It wasn't even the bookstore near my mom's. But it was just fifty feet from one of my favorite bakeries amid some really wonderful restaurants. I spent a lot of time browsing before and after lunches and dinners, many of them with qnotku.
Now it's no more. Farewell, Books-a-Million Shirlington. My personal world is a sadder place.

I know exactly what you mean. Unlike other stores (except perhaps a few record stores), good bookshops are sort of like living creatures, aren't they?

Hugs and smiles,
