The only book store I have near me is a Borders. Avendesora Send a noteboard - 17/02/2011 07:01:25 PM
I am glad it will remain open, for now. Said Borders is 15 miles away, too. So if that closes, I will have literally nothing other than amazon or a road trip. *crosses fingers*
*MySmiley*

I believe all news and research that supports my opinion, and dismiss the rest as conspiracy and lies.
