I'm excited to see this. I've started to become really convinced lately that online shopping (for everything!) really needs a next leap forward.
I'm sick of everything I can buy on the internet being presented as a grid of images with a title, description, and price, with a detail page if I click on it.
The presentation of a physical stores is so varied! A small bookstore is so different from a large bookstore, which is so different from a toy-store, which is again so different from an auto-parts store.
I think the online UX for shopping is in dire need of iteration at this point. There's a reason each of those physical stores are presented differently, and I feel like we've lost so much of that in online shopping.
I'm really excited to see the ideas you come up with for ways to make buying books online different from buying shoes or auto-parts online. I hope you're able to find some of that magic that bookstores were able to create.
Good luck!
