Is there a certain shop where you love buying books?

I'm amused with people I know who have favorite book stores. Because I don't. I go to every book store I know. Read some, and buy some. How about you? Do you have a favorite book store? If yes, what's the name of the store?

My favorite book store is the public library since I can get all the books I want for free! LOL Plus then I don't need to keep them around the house, cluttering up the area and taking up space. We already have many books we need to get rid of, so I think renting for me is the best option.

I used to go to the Lincoln library of the US consulate in my city. But when it moved to another location, I haven't been able to find it and resume my visits. Anyway, they have quite a collection of books.

@lilblondiemjd - I've always loved reading at libraries as well. It's just that it's far from our house that I needed to write a public transportation to get there. @bloggeroo - Aw! How cool.

I usually go to Barnes & Noble or Books-a-Million, because they each have locations that are convenient for me to visit. I can drive to them in only a few minutes, and they usually have the books I am looking for, so I usually don't need to shop elsewhere for books.

That's good. I also prefer bookstores which are nearby our place.

I will go into just about every book store, but we had a new one built not long ago that I absolutely adore! Its called Half Price Books and books are literally half price. I can't leave that store without buying at least one. My best friend and I went last night and I got 4 books for 18 bucks! She got 6 for 22! Its amazing!

Wow! That's so cool. Many businessmen should open book stores like that!!!

Yup. I frequent a second-hand bookstore called BookSale where I regularly buy books for my personal library. Since they have branches in other locations, I also go there. Anyway, it's understandable that I keep coming back to this store. It's practically the only bookstore where I can afford to buy books on a regular basis. A hardbound book costs less than US$1 so I can buy several each week.

BookSale! I love that store! You can buy everything you want for a cheaper price!!! It's a cool place to hang out to. I often find myself sitting on the floor while browsing tons of books that I love to buy. So, so great!
