The silence of people, the smell of coffee, the shuffling of books, and dinging of the door as more people came in; this is what the average person thinks a book store is like. Though some bookstores are like that many can be loud or not have access to coffee at the ready. There are place that you can find and buy books that don’t have to strictly be selling books.

The smell of freshly inked paper flooding your senses, the brush of the pages against your fingertips as they fly from the back cover to the front. The book feels so right in your hand, the coffee sitting comfortably in your other, and you feel utterly at home. As you peruse the aisles of books at your disposal, all the genres you could think of, you don’t have a worry in the world. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that after reading that, you’re thinking of one of the most commonly known bookstores. Probably Barnes & Noble. Maybe even Books a Million.
