I have one Little Free Library in my neighborhood now. I saw it 5 blocks away from my house when I was running this week. I am so happy! I am gonna drop some books this week.
If you don’t know yet what are these Little Free Libraries, read this post: Leave a book, take a book.
Here are a few more pics I have taken mostly in North Capitol Hill.
ADA’s is part café, part bookstore and part gift store. They don’t really sell the kind of books I read: science, geeky and technical books but I am sure some of you would love it. These books give the place a special atmosphere. It is a one of a kind café, a very cozy place to relax or work.
Books to me are like candy to a child. When in a bookstore, I want to buy everything!
I really liked the very old Elliott Bay Book Company store in Pioneer Square. I remember reading the recommendations written on flash cards, asking for help to find a book that my kids would devour or one that would be accessible to me and my poor English back then.
When in 2010, Elliott Bay left Pioneer Square to move to Capitol Hill, I thought it would not be the same. I thought it would be modern, cold, and lacking a soul, but I was wrong. I like to go, wander, sit, have a coffee at the 10th avenue “new” store… and try to moderate my purchases…
