Trip to the local book store….

I went to the local book store yesterday morning. I got several Harry Potter themed socks that they had. Four different sets of them….each set represents one of the four house at Hogwarts. A book mark that reads “She reads books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live.” I also got four books to add to my collection (listed below). There’s no such thing as having too many books to read.

    I miss trips to the book-store. I live quite centrally in London and most of our smaller book retailers are now gone sadly. The trend seemed to have started a few years back with the likes of Waterstones swooping in, but once they too dried up to online retailers we’re left with very little.

    I use to love not just the books, but the trinkets you could find there (like Harry Potter socks😁)

      We use to have more book stores in town. Now they’re going out of business because of the online retail business. I think these online stores are doing business online as well too in order to compete with that. I think it’s a great idea to be able to do some of your business online (not just to compete with online retailers) but with the pandemic and the elderly, you have people who may not be able to get outside of their homes to be able to go to your brick and mortar building.

    All of the book stores where I live are closed due to the national lockdown. I’ve always loved the Harry Potter series. You can never have enough reading material in a collection!

      I agree with you there….you can never have too much reading material in your collection. I’m glad you agreed with me. I love the Harry Potter series also…and now I have plenty of Harry Potter socks to wear when I go out in public.
