I love bn.com

Why do you ask?
Next day shipping to select East Coast destinations (mine being one of the select).

It’s nice (when you’re not broke) and kinda too lazy to catch the bus that takes a half hour to 45 minutes to get to either Barnes & Noble’s brick and mortar store, or my favourite neighbourhood bookstore, to get them delivered to your door.

It’s close enough to instant gratification…which is only one of the reasons I like actual physical stores.
Some other reasons: smell of books and Otis the sales manager cat.
But for smelling books, used book stores are probably the best…it’s musty :-)

Please note however, this in no way implies that I don’t love other bookstores or that I love B&N more than other bookstores.
This is just cuz I want books now…
