I love books (I know, hard to tell). Yesterday, before we saw Serenity, Amy and I ended up in the Strand Book Store at 828 Broadway (and 12th). It was unbelievably great – 18 miles of books, lots of old stuff - some dusty, some yellowy, but all delightfully full of paper. And – most remarkably - there wasn’t a chair or a latte in sight. Just like your father’s bookstore used to be.

you missed the best part of the Strand... they often get the first copies of new books b/c they get them from people that have pre release versions / review copies. even better is they sell these at 1/2 price even thought they are in mint condition. I have gotten a number of books before the "official publish date" posted on amazon or barnes and noble well before it's online or in their stores and 50% cheaper than online. I guess the word will be out now....
