I used to buy books and then have to hide them because my other half would want to know when I had bought it, how much it cost, etc. I used to have to hide the wrapping that the book came in....and I would tell him 'oh, I have had this book ages' as my nose grew another few inches  ....and Textbooks were my weakness.....they still are to a degree.
He could never understand that a good book is worth its weight in gold. |
Oh someone with my weakness as well - I love books which is probaly the reason I have worked in Libraries for the past 37 years .
But getting back to the original subject what does this shop actually sell
