I'm glad this is a good place place for you to unwind, it used to be for me as well. Both our Barnes and Noble and Borders left, but I used to love to go in and check things out. We have another chain that has come in but it is a different atmosphere not so conducive, very hectic and no chairs. I miss being able to do this but understand how nice it can be. There is a mom & pop store that opened up near by as an answer to the closings that has become a sanctuary instead, very peaceful and the smell of the books is nice, so soothing. So love the books and has been a great place to meet people with the same passion as well!
