So how do you like your books?

Rare, medium, or well done?  I prefer books that are done well — I mean, well done.  Bookstore names fascinate me.

Once upon a time, I worked part-time at A Novel Idea, which sold rare, used, out-of-print, and collectible books — and more and more new books as time went on.  When it was sold, the new owner changed the name, but this photo shows what it looked like back then.

I love that bookstore sign! People really are clever, aren't they?!

I enjoy creative book store names, too, Bonnie. And beauty shops--like Curl Up and Dye, haha.

I like my books (and my burgers) well-done.

I like creative bookstore names too.

Darn it - Beth beat me to the punch with the hair salon puns, they're the best. One in a neighboring town near where I live is called "Best Little Hair House." :)
