But Serena and I did find a gem of a used bookstore, somewhat by accident, on the camping trip we took at the beginning of July. We couldn&#39;t stay long, though, with bags of ice in the car. :(<br /><br />If I ever make it to Chicago, I&#39;ll have to keep this store in mind.<br /><br />--Anna<br /><a href="http://diaryofaneccentric.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Diary of an Eccentric</a>Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08046635675540466183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-26333670689456166742009-09-08T23:27:21.568-04:002009-09-08T23:27:21.568-04:00Ooo, I LOVED The Lace Reader!

I am always delighted when I find something like this!<br /><br />Jackie - we should read it in tandem! I see the Bumbles want to read it too. It is my hope and prayer that I can get to it in the next few weeks!<br /><br />Wendy - see, I hunt down the bookstores when hubby is otherwise occupied! If not, he would be driven up the wall!<br /><br />Randy Sue - to me, when it comes to the indie store, it is not about the deal. I would pay a little more just based on pricipal! Ellen was excited to help, as any of us bibliophiles would! Kindred spirits, are we!<br /><br />Iliana - I am so jealous! I would LOVE to go to that event. I can&#39;t imagine you would have missed this place. It sits right smack dab in the middle of Printers Row!<br /><br />Jeane - Oh, I wish you would have taken pictures! When I go in these places, and start taking pictures, they don&#39;t know what to think of me. Take your camera next time. Dawn can feature it on her spotlight!<br /><br />Dawn - Chicago has my heart. It is like a small town in a big town&#39;s clothes. Of course, I&#39;ve never been up there in the winter, but still!<br /><br />Bumbles - I can understand the distraction. There is always so much going on up there! I would love to read Rebecca with you.

Maybe we&#39;ll start making a point to search them out. Let me know when you plan to start reading Rebecca - I&#39;ve got a used copy sitting here at home waiting to be read - would be fun to discuss together.

Knowledgeable independent booksellers and their staffs of avid readers are cherished by book lovers everywhere for this reason. It breaks my heart every time I hear from bookseller friends how people come in and receive terrific recommendations, as you did from Ellen, then say they&#39;ll buy the books for less money online. Independent stores usually offer their own frequent buyer incentives, and we need to keep them in business!Randy Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17648829214923805628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-31423063720195220932009-09-08T12:03:34.520-04:002009-09-08T12:03:34.520-04:00This sounds like a wonderful store, Sandy.

You should do a little post on your bookshop!<br /><br />Beth - the one big bummer is that as often as I visit my parents, there IS NO INDIE BOOKSTORE in Lafayette, IN. I&#39;m thinking there is an entrepreneurial opportunity there. After all, it is a university town!<br /><br />Andreea - well I did.

I hate being limited by the size of my darned suitcase and its weight!!!!<br /><br />Caite - this is the problem. If I go over that 50 pounds, I am in big trouble with the hubbie. He would be quick to remind me that is why I have my Kindle!<br /><br />Gavin - it is so sad when the little guys close up shop.
