I recently joined Bookstore Anonymous. We try to help each other with our bookstore addiction problems (namely the feeling that we need to own a copy of every good book on the shelves, and two copies if it is on sale.)
I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

We meet every Thursday at Barnes & Nobles.
Yikes. How true.
I don't spend money on much, but I never feel guilty spending it in a bookstore.
Thanks for all the comments. Looks like the subject of books really struck a chord. See you at Bones and Narble...
I miss those bookstores...
We only have one, very small, 'British English' bookstore in Kyiv.
Glad to hear we have a Barnes and Noble in Smallsbury! Always a good stop because the always have, The Economist. :)
