I am not much of a reader, but I used to work at a bookstore and I buy a lot of books...creates the allusion of being a reader. But more importantly, I like attending events and getting books signed. I have unfortunately missed Neil Gaiman and Ozzy Osbourne over the years (that would be cool), but I have attended to meet Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of Kiss, Britney Griner of the Phoenix Mercury, and most recently Anne Rice. I have already purchased by ticket for Cary Elwes this week.
I like the store, not only because of the frequent and big-name book signings, but it is a convenient location to my house, has a great selection, and a little attached eating area. I subscribe to their Facebook page and continue to monitor their newsletter for other upcoming signings. I definitely recommend supporting this store and meeting some of the many authors that come through the doors. Parking is a big challenging, especially during book signings.
