I have an absolutely legit reason for missing the last PPP. I finally opened the book shop! We had a soft opening on Thursday and celebrated for three days, and then had the grand opening on Monday. It's been a really interesting week. It's the first time I've been in the bookshop with someone other than Geoff, Jinx, or Shay. Having so many people in and out has been a little overwhelming. I keep checking in and pinching myself to make sure it's real. I've got a really bruised side from the pinching.
People seem to be fairly pleased with it, even as others have been fairly negative. I'm aware that the world is moving toward electronics. E-books, e-readers, Kindles, Nooks. I get it. Yay technology. But I don't really care. There is nothing like having an actual book. There's a weight and a feeling from holding a book. There are still people out there that would rather have the real thing than the e-version. I doubt that I will ever own any form of e-reader. I couldn't imagine not turning pages, dog earring them, writing notes in the margins, highlighting favorite passages. And before you say it, it's not the same when you do that stuff on a Kindle or a Nook. Plus, there's the smell of books - new and old. If it's not your thing, that's fine. Have your e-readers. More power to you. It is my thing, and I want to give people that feel the same way a place to come.
The people that have come in have really liked the shop. I'm happy about that. I'm proud of seeing my dream come into reality. I don't want to see it crash and burn ever. I'm going to do everything I can to keep it up and running.
So! Info about the book store. The Book Case is open Monday through Friday, 10-5, and Saturday 11-6. It is a new and used book shop. That means there are opportunities to trade in books for credit or different books. There will be a featured book each week, and I will be setting up a book study group. All readers will be welcome to join the group, whether you hold a book or a nook. I'll put out details on that later. All questions can be shot to the shop at [email] or call [number]. OR JUST COME BY! Ok, enough of my shameless promotion.
Book of the week: Charlotte's Web<
On to the pink picture post, now that I've finished rambling about the book shop.

OH! Last thing. I got a bet this weekend. He's AWESOME.
