    It’s kind of funny how Amazon makes Barns and Noble seem cute and cuddly.

    I’ve got Strand books here in NY so I don’t need Barnes and noble but if you live in a small town without a local bookstore this might be your only option.

      Hell, I live in a huge city and don’t have many other options. Most of the independent stores here are focused on specific topics instead of just general fiction. Either that or they aren’t anywhere near me, which sucks in a city with crazy traffic.
