Hello, Friends!
*If you can, please support your local bookstores during this time! My two favorites (Powell's and Annie Blooms) are in danger of having to shut down permanently because of the extreme loss of business.*
Annie Blooms Website: www.annieblooms.com
Powell's Website: www.powells.com
Don't you just immediately feel at home in a bookstore? No matter where you are in the world, in a bookstore you can surround yourself with your most favorite and familiar characters, melting boundaries of time and space ✨ Landon and I spent our rainy Saturday night in THE LARGEST Independent Bookstore in the United States-- Powell's City of Books. This is my happy place in Portland; I could easily spend multiple consecutive days exploring the never-ending maze of books.
I'm currently shopping for and planning my 2020 Reading list-- please feel free to share your favorite books with me!
I'm so very happy you're here. Thank you for watching :)
Hugs,
Morgan

@arabellat 4 года назад

if you ever want to go see a gorgeous book shop (not quite as big but equally as beautiful) you should check out barter books in alnwick if you've never been. it's a used book shop that's a lot smaller than this one but so cosy and so beautiful. i spent hours in there when i went, and it has a small cafe too. i think it used to be a railway station or something.

My lovely English teacher used to take my class on field trips to Portland, which is 2 hours away from where I live. We used to see plays at the Artists Repertory and Portland Center Stage, and when we saw a play at AR, we would wander around the Pearl District and everyone always defaulted to Powell's. It was always so beautiful. Watching this brings back so many memories, and I wish to go there again once it is safer. I love it so much, I always found so many amazing things, I always had fun with friends, and this video really reminded me to cherish the memories I have.

One interesting element is there used book buy counter. They divide into a reject and accept pile. You store the rejects away ASAP so that, when they are done, you clear out quickly to make room for the next seller.

PS ... Forgot to mention Landon's fascination with the ladder. That really resonated with me because I have always LOVED those and the dream house I envision for myself has a library with floor to ceiling bookshelves requiring a ladder just like that (as well as a big comfy chair, cozy window seat that looks out on a beautiful garden or forest, and a table/desk with a little green reading lamp just like the ones in Ivy League library scenes in movies). :-D

@nattbenson 4 года назад

Worked at Powell's...we try to keep children's/middle grade books of all translations in the children's room so that bilingual or non-English speaking children don't have to go to a whole other room. It makes it more inviting for the kids.
