Library/Bookstore habits
Hello everyone !
Today I have another conversation post for you all ( .. am I annoying with thoses ? I hope not !! )
If you are like me, and I hope i’m not the only one, you have your own little kind of “rituals” every time you enter a bookstore or even a library ahah .. so I thought we could share thoses together today 😘
I’m usually using bookstores more personally, although now that I got a brand new library card just the other day, I shall go more often hopefully ! it’s not even that far from home so eeerh .. idk what’s wrong with me xD I just hope I can finish reading my current one I loaned before the due date..
My favorite one is always indigo chapters (which is our canadian equivalent of barnes & nobles, if you didn’t knew !) ; Although the french stuff is limited .. I just LOVE the little knick knacks & stationaries, I can’t help myself. 😳 So that being out of the way, I usually start by the knick knacks ahah.. going through with the stationnaries, baby stuff .. AND only after I make my way from the popular books in the middle of the floor to our little french section.
Like me, i’m sure you will feel this; this is where I can stay for. hours. and even then, I can get out of there with no books at all xD
Unlike most of you, however… i’m not judging my books from their covers [or not only the cover, anyway ..]. I skim the shelves, and if a title do attract my eye I will pick it up and read the back of it, then flip the pages and read a few sentences … go back to the back of it .. and basically it take ages 😂 Im so not someone who can just freely buy any book regardless of if i’d let it sit there or actually read it.. I wanna make sure I will read & like it. hence why I take so much time..
((Also .. at this point it’s just like i’m in a trance .. so. calm. Nothing in the world matters anymore .. Just books !!))
Also, fun fact; ANY. books. having dogs inside of it, such as dogs encyclopedias or what have you, I just NEED to stop and flip to the “Dachshund” page to read what it says of my breed.. I’ll then take a picture of the page and share it onto our fb group of local dachshunds parents xD
Now let me know;
° Do you judge books by their covers ?
° Are you more libraries or bookstores ?
° Do you have a more “wierd” habit like me ?
° What’s your usual path inside that “store” ?
