It was still there when I returned to Wales after nine years away, it was still the same, and such a comfort.

But, since I don't live in an English-speaking country, I have to have an e-reader. Feeding my addiction (reading) would be impossible without it, I'm afraid :-(Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09186491465911432817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7744942361776579041.post-81462169227433390162012-04-11T13:37:31.299-04:002012-04-11T13:37:31.299-04:00I love love LOVE independent book stores.

Then my parents got me one for Christmas this year, bless their hearts. I almost threw it into the fireplace. Since then I've read some books on it, but I can't get behind it. It is good for magazines and Angry Birds though. <br /><br />I love independent book stores, sadly there's very few left in my area.Simple Musingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972933852651064813noreply@blogger.com
