One of the things I miss most about back home is our cute little bookstores like the Doylestown Bookshop. It's literally a few blocks from my house and has a great selection.
Another favorite of mine is a used bookstore that's in this huge, old townhouse and is divided into two parts. The first part has a lot of contemporary fiction, biographies and such and the other specializes in older copies of classics. I've got many a book there, and for a great price, too!
Although I love the smell of new books just off the press (yes, I know I'm a nerd), I don't think anything can beat the worn appeal of an old novel. In my new apartment, I have lots of bookshelves and plan to fill them to the brim with old books.
Do you have a favorite used book?
