One thing I forgot to mention the other day (aside from citing a visit to a specific Barnes&Noble) is that a big part of our Ithaca vacation each year is a book binge. I save up for quite a while and then…well, here’s what happened this year. This is from three different bookstores: the afore-mentioned B&N in Pittsford, and Ithaca’s Odyssey Books and Autumn Leaves (the latter being a wonderful used bookstore).
And then what did I do on Monday? Why, I went to the library and checked out five books! Because, well, it’s what you do.
Time to do some reading before vacation ends….
Ah, I love seeing the books people pick out and I admit – even though I know have the book-version of what knitters call “SABLE*” about their yarn – it makes me itch to get to a good bookstore and pick out more.
I do have a copy of Cloud Cuckoo Land to read some time, ordered it from Bookshop over the past summer.
