The plight of the independant book shop has been well documented, with many closing due to too stiff competition from the internet and big retailer discounts.
I know I'm guilty of shopping online and going for two for three discounts rather than patronising small specialist bookshops.
Visiting a shop crammed full of unusual and hard to find books, breathing in that smell of old paper; it's a unique expierience.
It would be a real shame to loose them all.
But then when you buy a lot of books that bit of discount does make a difference.
Ho hum.
