Browsing through book stores always instantly makes me happy :). And I always buy books when traveling... not very practical souvenirs I know but it's what I like. Now I won't travel to SFO anything soon (live on the other side of the world) but... I made a mental note that when I do I will go to Booksmith.cessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07611195722797171786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076308692811460989.post-80784392082017799902012-01-18T20:13:14.106-08:002012-01-18T20:13:14.106-08:00It is a really fun place!

Now that Borders is gone we've just got a Barnes and Noble in my hometown, and while it does the trick, there is something about a bookshop with character that just makes me happy inside.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194834748090369779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076308692811460989.post-11655927884619951902012-01-18T09:57:20.168-08:002012-01-18T09:57:20.168-08:00That sounds like such a cool bookstore!

I'll have to look for it next time we're out that way. I usually stick to my YA ways, but there are probably so many good general fiction books I'm missing out on.kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11221304377970098013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076308692811460989.post-88936756944987593932012-01-17T20:31:11.671-08:002012-01-17T20:31:11.671-08:00Aaaaaaah!I want to go here!--it sounds so amazing....Aaaaaaah!I want to go here!--it sounds so amazing.

Next time I'm out there I'll for sure have to go. And if I end up moving out there (fingers crossed) I imagine it'll be a frequent stop.<br /><br />You've been to Portland and Powell's, right?
