Pictures, and what they bring to mind

The snow has stopped,

I’m feeling a little tired,

and,

lazy,

I was perusing,

bookshelf porn,

love that sight,

sometimes,

I look at the pictures,

and,

captions,

come to mind,

for example:

hoxe:shrine by wild goose chase on Flickr.

Looks like my room:-)

or

a-amyk:ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i love cats so much.

Ohhhh, soooo, cuuuute

or,

Putney, London used bookstore

Those fancy brackets,

could vastly improve the look,

of my bookshelves.

Or,

Voltaire & Rousseau, Glasgow by davidboysoncooper

Jeeez, some people say my store is messy:-)

or,

or,

bookshops reflect light,

differently,

or,

( picture source )

I love the name,

I love the look,

and I hope,

this doesn’t happen.

Sad,

to see so many bookstores closing,

but,

that’s progress I guess?

Later girls,

BB

I am a bookish butch in my mid early fifties. I live in Montréal and always have. I used to run a small used bookstore. Reading keeps me sane. My latest jiggie is photography, book project in the works, living the dream

  1. We’ve lost lots here in Toronto too. That bookstores are closing is awful and strange and sad. Is it progress? What we know is that it’s change: whether it’s a change that has progress of something attached to it is something that only time will tell.

  2. It’s not progress when bookstores close, it’s tragedy. I have bought more books in the last two years than I have in the previous ten, all thanks to those infernal devices. I can’t bear the thought of a world without bookstores or without paper books at all.

    Before this latest buying craze I was always a library patron. I’m too poor to buy everything I read but I’m doing my part to keep my local stores in business.

  3. Well, obviously as a bookstore owner and lover, I don’t think their more and more frequent closings is a good thing. I hope I will never see their demise.

  4. Sorry I’ve been offline so much lately. Lovely post, I especially love the one with the cat đŸ™‚ Also, your bookstore was quite neat and tidy, any neater and tidier and it couldn’t have been a bookstore! – especially in comparison to the ones shown. heh
