prettygoodyearSo the only bookstore we had in town that mattered and sold English books, closed down last weekend. Unexpected as well, though maybe not so much. It upsets me so freaking much. Now where do I get my books? I went there pretty much every week, I watched how their collection got weaker and weaker, but hey, bookstore! And now it's gone. Along with all those million other stores in town. We basically only got clothes stores and electronic stores left. Sigh.
I live in such a stupid city! People living here don't give a shit about books, music, more expensive shit. We're stuck with ordinary, impersonal stores. This past weekend I visited a bookstore located in a church. It wasn't just a bookstore, it was also a music store, a café and also a tourist information building. It seems to work. It looked stunning. Why can't we have something like that over here? Why did no one prevent this bookstore we had from closing? I'm sad…
I don't like online shopping, try to avoid it as much as I can, but with all the good stores closing down I'm kinda forced. Sigh…
