I usually get a stack of them and go to the easy chairs to read for about an hour. There are also a lot of software and website books in the computer section. Maybe our store is larger than yours.

Has anybody found anything remotely interesting in the bookstores? Another reason to blame the internet. Not only can you buy the books online, but you can view them online as well. Much cheaper and readily available. Shame really, as I prefer to read stuff on paper than on screen. Mike, The Keeper of the Archive

Around here Barnes and Nobles as well as Borders has a decent selection of photography related books. B&N actually has them in two different sections one on film and one on digital. Plus all the magazines. 7D MKII ■ 10-22 ■ 15-85 ■ 28-135 ■ Σ 50-150 ■ 70-200 f4L ■ 100-400L ■ 580EX II
