Seeing Green was sad to read (in OTBKB) that Seventh Avenue Books will be closing.
I tell all my friends to avoid our local Barnes and Noble and shop at 7th Ave Books or the Community Bookstore, the two shops which are right there and locally owned. Most of my friends still go to B & N; in fact, for the Dillster’s birthday he received three book certificates from there. Not to look a gift horse in the mouth or anything, but if enlightened locals don’t shop locally, what chance is there for these small stores?
You can order ANY BOOK from the Community Bookstore and they will have it for you within a day or two. The dog smell is part of its charm. Does it really smell like dog. Don’t answer that. I LOVE Community Books but you’re entitled to your opinion and B&N preference. Louise
And it doesn’t smell like a bad pet shop.
community bookstore may be cute and locally-owned, but there selection is quite sparse. truth of the matter is that b+n has what you want, and even books you never knew you needed.
