Book Blogger Hop: Do You Get Weird Looks in Book Aisles?

Welcome to the Book Blogger Hop!

This Week's Prompt:

Do you ever get strange looks from strangers while browsing the book aisle in department stores? What do you think is going through their minds?
╍Submitted by Billy, Coffee-Addicted Writer

My Answer:

No, you've got to understand, there’s rarely anyone down the book aisle. The only evidence of life might be a seasoned woman browsing through Harlequin romances, lost in a world of happily-ever-afters. It’s a chilling thought, really, to ponder how book reading is becoming a nearly obsolete pastime thanks to the relentless march of technology. It feels a bit like watching the last embers of a fire flicker and fade.

  1. Yes it's sad when you think of it that way. I think that's why I prefer shopping at bookstores because then you are surrounded by readers surrounded by books, it's a little piece of paradise in a darkening world. I still love me a real book. Ebooks don't do it for me but I read them when it's more beneficial...mainly for indie reads and ARCs, but that's about it.
