Blogspiration #23; Bookshops. Bookshops. Bookshops.
So this week, like a few weeks back, I have a Waterstones advert that I saw when waiting for the underground to arrive. I instantly fell in love with it, and as Waterstones is the only bookstore in my local town, I have always loved it more than most but that love has been growing with all these awesome adverts.
Anyway, without further ado, here’s the advertisement;
A good book will keep you fascinated for days. A good bookshop for your whole life.
Honestly, cannot describe how taken I am by this quote.
Bookshops are one of the most amazing places in the world because they hold all the books. It is not the same to just buy online – even though I do often – because there is just something so… amazing about actually walking into a store full of books.
Do you agree?

Fayezer, I LOVE.
We had a Borders near where I live up until a couple of years ago and it was our PLACE. My Mum and I spent hours there, lost in books and magazines and cups of coffee and… it doesn’t seem quite the same now it’s gone.
A good bookshop? YES. It’s trying to get people like husbandman to understand :D

Ooooh. Love drifting through bookshops. But I wish their prices were more like online booksellers. :-p
