| - I really wish I could leave a positive review for this establishment. I'm an inveterate reader who buys ways too many books, a haunter of libraries, a sometime writer, and a strong supporter of independent bookstores. But due to an unfortunate incident that occurred a couple of years ago, and which continues to grate, I am unable to do so.
What happened? I entered the bookstore in search of a gift for my partner's nephew. A store employee, or possibly the store manager, followed me from the entrance, all the way to the children's section at the back, and then all the way back to the cash register at the front. During this entire trajectory, he never once asked me if I needed any help. From the look on his face, he was viewing me with suspicion.
Bottom line: if you want to be treated like Trayvon Martin, or if you want to do business with a bookstore that treats its customers in this way, then this is the bookstore for you.
