You guys are echoing my theme. I have no use for book stores...really...but it was NICE going back into one. I feel comfortable in a book store, I do not feel comfortable at a gym or a bar.

I like browsing books. I wouldn't mind having a chair and skimming some books to see if I'd want to read them. Of course, if I did that, and I wanted to buy the book, I'd buy it. I'm not much in favor of "show rooming".

But - will my nostalgia for book stores bring me back to regularly going to a book store? No. I read FAR more now that I'm reading ebooks. I have zero problems finding more books that I want to read but won't have time to read. And the "experience of reading" is just so much better on a device than a paper book....IMHO.
