Advantage of brick and mortar.

Due to time constraints, my main method for novel consumption is audible.  So, I  listen in the car or whenever I have a moment that my mind can wander in.  Thanks to audible my book rate is much higher then it’s ever been. My girlfriend and I are walking audible ads and push it on anyone and everyone.

As a new author and general book lover, making time to read the words off the pages is a necessity.  So off to Half Price and Barnes & Noble.

Our first stop is always to the Robert Jordan section.  Wheel of time was something we enjoyed as a couple so it’s got a special place in us both.

While imagining the day we have all 14 books in hard cover up on our book shelf we heard some one on the other aisle talking about ‘Name of the Wind’ and ‘Myst Born’.

It  was a couple who had also grown close while waiting for the last book of  the ‘Wheel of time’.  We nerded out for a while and swapped recommendations.

This short encounter is something you just can’t get anywhere but in a book store.  Yes people read but for some reason it doesn’t often come up in conversation.   At least not with me around.

Give me some book nerds with the light of excitement in their eye any day.
