I like bookstores, but I always get confused and don't know what to buy..

Hey, is that the 'Old Dog' in the corner? :P

If it is the "old Dog" then I guess he is where he belongs (ie. in the corner) :-)

I used to... Before I could get all I wanted with my laptop. I still relish quiet time though, (one mind waking into one whenever am chanced

It's not the same (books on a laptop).

I wholeheartedly agree, not the same at all.

I used to too, before I started farming and had kids. This looks like a beautiful bookstore though, I'd love to visit it and then maybe the beach too

I could be distracted in this bookstore, because there is a wonderful view of the sea there! ^_^ That dog looks really quiet in that bookshop. A nice view, something good to read, a quiet dog... what's better? :D

What's better? How about pasta with your mother's wild mushrooms?

It looks like the dog has tracked you down though! Run!

Some of those tracking dogs are GOOD :-)
I thought that I had made a clean getaway!

Not from that one, he has the look :0)

OH MY GOD?!?!?! DID YOU JUST TURN INTO... A DOG?!?!?! 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

I'm not sure. Whistle and see if I come.
And if I do, how about throwing me a bone?

😙

I've not seen a bookstore by the sea before, except it's definitely in Greece hahsha, The land of Poisedon.

Just joking I think it reading and relaxing.

I guess that it would be the perfect place to look for a book about Poisedon :-)

Hades may come calling, no thanks 😀😀

my library does signing events with authors and use the independent book store round the corner on a back street to bring books to buy from the author's at the event which i think is great

Yes, it is great!

Yes i like it so much. You find a very beautiful place to hanging books.

Any books that are burned in these days of censorship should be at least hanged :-)

Old, big/very small bookstores are the greatest, and with a little dust here and there even better!📚😎
This year I visited Cărturești Carusel, a beautiful bookstore in Roumania, and of course when you stumble upon such an interesting bookstore you HAVE to buy something!

The bookstores that just let you sit and read for a while without buying are nice too :-)

Love it..i can say this is one of the best I' ve seen! Located in loutraki beach?

Located right in the middle of the Loutraki waterfront strip, nestled amidst cafes and restaurants, hotels and ice cream shops.

hahahahahahha @onceuponatime - right clicked image, checked it was legit.. and google told me ... 'Image size:
4016 × 4016
No other sizes of this image found.
Best guess for this image: luxury yacht'

XD

without being a dick, but, for a $26 post, id like to see a few more words. my work takes 2 hours, and i get a dollar.

please dont be a a haejin ;)

but back to the topic. books on laptop is convenient, but not the same as being able to turn the pages. to feel. to smell.

pony out.

If you are not being a dick, I certainly can't tell the difference.

Your work takes 2 hours? I work 7 days a week , 14 to 20 hours a day. Since 2011. Making these opportunities available, even for whiny brats like you. Did you think that the $26 I make on a post comes anywhere near covering the costs of what I do for various crypto communities?

Go f*** yourself.

Bookstores are really nice places in my opinion. It's kinda sad there aren't much around these days.. especially in my neighborhood. Probably because you can now buy electronic books in the comfort of your bed. however, it's always refreshing to socialize with strangers in bookstores.

Beautiful photography and pleasure about bookstores as the window of the world. However, say one thing, sir: Does the dog want to buy books or want to read books? :))

Why not? I love the smell of books and the wonder delight in going over the books to decide which to pick.

Great bookstore..Absolutely i do also.Looking for a beach read, there is something here to be found..

Yes. I love that. I love books. I love bookstores library and anywhere books hanged beacause Books play a significant role in our life. ... For the majority of people, books are part of their everyday life. Anyways these hanging of the books is amazing and i love that.

Yes, Definitely, I am a boy who like to collect knowledge.

I love bookstores and libraries, it's where I've been the happiest, it's where I've gone to think, and it's where I was myself. The smell of magic and adventure is always there.

εσενα σου αρεσει να γυροφερνεις σε βιβλιοπωλεια....ενταξει....
.απαντησε μου ομως, οταν η γυναικα σου εχει κανει το σπιτι σου βιβλιοπωλειο απο τα τοσα που εχει αγορασει και δεν εχεις μερος να καθισεις τοτε τι κανεις???

Yes I like it. I like to look for new books and read the summary on the back cover :)

That's like my only hobby.

I really do!! Is this place in Eretria?

yes i love to read more books

One of the most comfortable place you can find ever.

I want to work at a book store or a pet store

Don’t have much around me anymore...but I do have a fantastic library I love hanging around!

Literally, i don't like to read the books physically. Even i study my course books on the laptop. Sometimes, i wonder on this that in the past, in my school, i had no e-books. I only had to study on the real books. But now, it is really normal.
I think I should shift this habit and should generate some interest in other books as well.

So do I. I hope that dog pees in the plant pot and not on the books.

So do I. I hope
That dog pees in the plant pot
And not on the books.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

What, again?

I love it,i love that hang out..hanging out in bookstore and reading stories and learning..

such a great idea sir!

A bookstore like this, yes i would love that. Sitting near the water and just enjoying a good book. Making you think differently about life and all

Yes sireee! At lunchbreaks, I used to hang around the bookstores a few steps from my office in Vienna's city center. I love to be surrounded by books especially about arts, culture, crafts, culinary as well as gardening.
The image looks very inviting... !

Hello, it's been 2 months almost I'm busy in some work dueto which I was unable to check your posts, it's very nice to get back to your blog,

I do enjoy hanging out in a book store but I never been in such a beautiful bookstore located on the seaside.

kindly tell me about the book you've selected from this store.

yeah, I do too. I am even writing a book.

This looks like my dream bookstore!

There are a few bookstores in Cape Town by the ocean (close to the Cape of Good Hope)

where's that?

there are many kinds of books
you are doing a great job

it is very beautiful store book!

Very good posts, good luck always in the esteem business

Yes i do😊😊😊@onceuponatime

A bookstore by the waterfront. What a wonderful idea! A new view on reading. I love antiquated bookstores. Thanks so much my friend.

Well only if I have to now but in the past I sure did !

So, SAdly i'm not a bookworm.

Long time no see.

Wowowo...excellent post...and very good your traveling...i really love travel...thanks for share this post...@onceuponatime (

Why are you

shouting?

Looks like he like to shout.

I used to @onceuponatime. But not so much these days. In fact I've gotten rid of most of my shelves and shelves of books over the years.

I only have about 10 that I'm still keeping. The rest I read and then pass on to someone else or a charity shop.

Just Hangout? oh yes I like it.

Yes of course i like it very much....i love reading the books...very good place to hanging a books....thanks for sharing sir...

There is always a chance to find a small treasure in such a place.

I have to say there are fewer and fewer of them here in the States anymore. Amazon has about killed them off except for a few.

That place would be the nicest book store I've ever seen.. a book store with a beautiful view could be a great place for reading also and could be tantalizing but wait, isn't that dog distracting?? I'm a bit scared..

I used to. It's like a 2nd library. Then we had Borders in Singapore which closed and left many customers who bought their vouchers unable to get their money back. Later, more of our local book stores chain start to close more too. Some went online. Some just cut. About the only cool one left are couple of Japanese Kinokuniya which has started to become smaller. The one I go still off and on is local Popular book store. They have also gone online but still have many stores to serve their stationary, books for children (text books and otherwise) and added electronics related stuff from laptops to other accessories.

I used to, nowdays i just hang around bookreads and wook and order the books online... Ofc in paper format, i hate reading books or anything similar on a screen... I just can't!

I love that. Amazing hanging of the books at this place.

... here's to a younger generation of book lovers ...

Yes as long as they will let you read books for free

Seems like you love to read a lot cool keep sharing your recommendations too :D

Cool impressions @onceuponatime! 👍

This might be one of my favorite bookstores from now on :D hanging around books and a view to the ocean??? How incredible is this....

You must be hanging out in this bookstore for almost a month! I suppose you have read all the interesting books without having to buy them!

Welcome back from the book store!

What attracts most is the book store by the beach. A perfect and ideal place to spend your evening
