This was in Minneapolis earlier this year and the demand was through the roof.

I mean if all the small bookstores came together at a brewery/pub in my town I would be intrigued too.
Weird how every town used to have a small bookstore, and they all went out of business because Borders and Barnes and Noble and Fox Books put all the little guys out of business, and then they all disappeared because Amazon put them out of business, and now people are clamoring for more small shops in their local towns.
I really miss our used book store. It was tiny but packed, and it had that smell.
