It has a working wood burning fireplace with wing back chairs positioned just right. The old wood floors creak, and it has multiple levels, some just a few steps down, some up the stairs or down. When I was young, I'd walk home from school and often I'd just go in their and wander through the children's book section, just looking at the beautiful books.Melissa Ann Goodwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454907380469372468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4282504373890041231.post-16056479413369686082011-05-30T18:12:18.387+01:002011-05-30T18:12:18.387+01:00Bookshops - a pet subject of mine!

My favourite bookshop is the Book Centre in Waterford city. In the midst of all that literary accomplishment, there's a seated area with tables for coffee & a fountain. The water gurgles while you drink coffee and read.

(Are they world-famous? They say they're world-famous.) It's a big place, but still comfy-cozy, and you can find or order anything. I have found, however, that lately bookstore prices can't compete with Amazon prices. Especially if you have the Amazon membership with free shipping. (I guess that paid membership means the shipping isn't free, exactly...)Brent Wescotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08313269993916969201noreply@blogger.com
