Unless you get some tangible value out of your local bookstore such as it being a 3rd space, locating rare books, etc. etc. I wouldn't bother. If physical books ever start going away it will be because publishers stop selling them entirely and neither Amazon nor your local bookstore will be able to save you.
- dewey 2y agoIndependent publishers are a thing and will probably not go away that easily, just like Vinyl and Cassettes still being sold.
- NickC25 2y agoThe tangible value is that I support a locally owned business (the money i spend stays in the community), can use it as a third space (as you correctly pointed out) to find like-minded individuals, and above all else, be in a space where everyone isn't glued to their phones.
