Vellichor: The strange wistfulness of used bookstores
Re: Wacky Wednesday
2) Favorite Clothing Store - I don't really have one. Maybe Loft?
3) Favorite place to buy shoes - DSW, because it's convenient
4) Favorite Bookstore - I went to this amazing barn of a bookstore in Columbus, Ohio once, and I think it remains my favorite bookstore that I've ever been inside.
5) Favorite place to shop (for anything) overall - This place called the Fantastic Umbrella Factory, in Charlestown, RI. It's a collection of various shoppes, and a farm. There's a greenhouse and a cafe, and chickens and peacocks running freely all over the place, and it's a wonderful place to roam around after a day at the beach.

2) Favorite Clothing Store Don't really have one. I just go to the outlet mall or TJ Maxx
3) Favorite place to buy shoes Payless - They have a size 5 section.
4) Favorite Bookstore There's this amazing old house that used to sell new/used books in a small town in McDonough, GA called Dawg-Eared Books. I used to go there with my grandmother and cousins when I was in town. I think it's out of business now though. There's also a used/new bookstore in Asheville, NC that I love but I can never remember the name of.
5) Favorite place to shop (for anything) overall Target. They have everything. I do wish the book section was larger though.
