Non-fiction isn't a section. Neither is "Pink Floyd.". Sunday, February 01, 2009. I try hard to fill my customer's book requests. Really, really hard. Possibly too hard. A conversation I had tonight:. I want [a play by August Wilson]. Okay, let me check the database. *checks* We don't have it. We could order it for you. It would be $30. Hey Rachel, how come the database says this play is so expensive? Which carries those editions. I write down directions and their phone number. Posted by Rachel B. Sleuth...

Non-fiction isn't a section. Neither is "Pink Floyd.". Friday, September 18, 2009. Last night, a parent came into the bookstore to get some reads for her 15 year-old son. He wanted Shutter Island.

She asked, after reading the summary on the back of Shutter Island and shuddering a little. "You recommended The Hunger Games. And An Abundance Of Katherines. I'm a boo...

But that is not the decision I ended up making! Instead, I'm going to school full-time in September, and booking it part-time, and hopefully that will let me a)pay my bills while b)still having enough study time to get impressive marks. We had previously met when I had phoned to say "I think your tenants have sabotaged our air-condit...

Non-fiction isn't a section. Neither is "Pink Floyd.". Saturday, February 07, 2009. A conversation I had today:. Do you have that book, "The Seven Habits of Happy People"? Do you mean The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. NO I do NOT mean that book. I mean the one about happy people, written by two authors. One of them is a guy named Rick. His first name is Rick? Do you think the other author is Stephen Covey? Getting steadily louder and angrier* You are NOT LISTENING TO ME. I think Stephen Covey -.

My enemy's much-prized effort sits in piles. In the kind of bookshop where remaindering occurs.‡. One passes down reflecting on life's vanities,.
