"7"^^ . "I recently discovered this lovely bookshop on Saturday and it was thanks to Walter. \n\nWalter is the River Trading Company four-pawed, furry employee who greets potential buyers and loves to receive belly rubs. I don't think Walter's cuteness was part of the owner's original plan to lure in customers, but I don't think it's a bad idea that he does so. As an animal lover, it's hard to pass up an opportunity to meet him. \n\nOnce inside I began to peruse for any gems I could possibly find. The bookstore is well laid out and airy; all of the books are shelved neatly and tidily. They also sell gently-used magazine and newly printed zines, as well as used objects and toys.\n\nYou can save a lot of money buying stuff here but on the other hand, with the holiday coming up, you can also spend a lot of money here. I had the intentions of walking away with one book but instead I left with three: two 33 1/3 Continuum series books and Bob Dylan's autobiography, Chronicles. All three were in great condition. And to my surprise, my purchase was under $20, and that's with tax included.\n\nDefinitely keep this store in mind for all of your book lover friends."^^ . "4"^^ . . "2010-11-10T00:00:00"^^ . . .
