This is going to sound nuts, but I think people are missing bookstores, something tangible, and the thrill of exploration. For avid readers and such there are places like GoodReads, but I've never found anything that helps me discover new books. I generally will surf Amazon looking at covers and titles, then sometimes look at a few to see if they would be interesting. If you could find a way to help people explore and find books easier would be really fantastic.
- WheelsAtLarge 9y agoI'm one that misses book stores. I had 7 near me ten years ago. Now I have to travel about 1/2 an hour to get to my nearest book store and that one is on deathwatch. Discovering new books is not as fun now. I miss going out on a whim to a bookstore to find a book and grabbing coffee or a snack. Match that feeling and I'm in.
