I'm currently working a holiday job at the Barnes & Noble in Manchester. It's about ten minutes from my house, so my closest bookstore. Like any job, there are good and not-so-good aspects, but I believe it's good to try new things. It's taught me a lot about retail, bookstores, and myself.
I was in that bookstore two days ago! What a great B&N. I don't know the name of the person who checked us out, but I commented to her that B&N should put a bookstore in the empty Christmas Tree Shop space in North Conway. Wouldn't that make a fabulous B&N? Still a trip for us, but we'd do it!!!
We have a small book section at the scout shop with books about knot tying, animals, rope crafts. Out most popular book right now is Bear Grylls, How to be a Scout. It makes a beautiful gift.
I always wanted to work at a Barnes & Noble and it never happened. I LOVE bookstores!! Here in Laconia, we have a small Innisfree branch, the main store being in Meredith. It's a fabulous store! Much more than just books, as many bookstores have nowadays. There used to be a fabulous independent bookstore in Center Harbor, Bayswater Books, but the owner retired a couple of years ago. I miss that store so much.

Sorry I missed you, I wasn't working that day. Thank you for shopping in store and not just ordering online from that behemoth that I won't name!
