I am delighted that so many members here had good experience with small independent bookshops. I've lived in a number of US cities, and I never did. The selection was usually poor. Some larger stores had good selection, but they were poorly organized, and it was difficult to find anything.
My one good experience with a bookshop was a small shop in Atlanta 25 years ago called The Science Fiction & Mystery Book Store. There were two proprietors. One had read all the SF books, and the other had read all the mysteries. Excellent selection. Excellent service. But one shop does not an industry make.
