My favorite used bookstore is closing. It's horrible. I'm very cheap when it comes to books, so I don't like buying them new. And I liked it because the prices were really nice, it was friendly, cozy, and I spent a lot of time there so it was very comfortable. Not to mention that I helped out shelving books for a bit.
I was rather depressed when I found out, then I wondered what would happen to all of my store credit. As it turns out, I get free books that add up to the amount of credit I had. I had around $100 in credit. So I've been making trips and have gotten maybe 50 or so books so far, and I have some more credit to use up, I just don't know if there are any more books that I want.
But I did get quite a few things that I'm excited about, specifically Classics. I got a lot of Shakespeare, and I got two H. G. Wells books, and I'm looking forward to reading those a lot. But I am now running out of room on my bookshelves, and I just got a new one.
I also wrote a series a short stories, and am very excited about that, because I am not so good at finishing stories once I start them. I can never come up with an ending.
So that's the update with me, and hopefully some H. G. Wells reviews will be making an appearance soon!
It is so sad to hear about the closing of the store. Great books, nice people.
