It IS a bookstore. I just can't remember the name. I think it's located in Paris if my shoddy memory serves.

Edit:
Found it. It's Shakespeare & Company, Paris, France. The photo appeared on Flavorwire as part of the 20 Most beautiful bookstores.

Seems to be. I've found one site that uses the same images and the filename is TrinityLibrary.jpg and doing a Google image search shows the same location.

I agree with those who value books and prefer a real book to electronic one. It is like food...you should feel it with your hands, notice how it smells...

OMG food porn. I love looking at food porn. I don't even care about calories; for me, it's that the food I look at didn't take me hours slaving in the kitchen. Pretty for the eyes, no effort to make.

By all means, read whatever you want. If you only want to read paper books, read paper books. If you only want to read e-books, feel free to only read paper books. Books are like food, they feed your mind. But it isn't paper or e-ink that feeds your mind, it is the words, and you get those words whether you read on paper or e-ink.

When I'm reading a good book, I don't notice how the book feels or smells, I'm too busy with reading. I do like being able to choose whatever font size on the e-reader that I want, I do like that the screen isn't yellowed like the pages of an old book often are, I do like not having to hold the e-reader open, and I do like having hundreds or even thousands of books on my e-reader. Paper books have advantages too, I can get them for cheap or free, and many aren't available as e-books yet, and it is easy to loan them or give them away.
