Are there any local bookstores near you still? I’m an American and we still have a few Barnes & Noble around, but there’s also at least one independent local bookstore that has a decent selection of new titles and can order most other titles currently available from publishers. They regularly have events with authors on tour, so that could be a way to find a store near you.

I appreciate local bookstores and brick and mortar B&N…BUT prices.
Unfortunately online is much cheaper than in store.
Sure, there’s a price differential, but I think of it as a “cover charge” for going and hanging out in their bookstore.
If the difference were only a nominal % I might agree with you.
When I bought the Complete Calvin and Hobbes the price at the local bookstore was about twice the online prices.
Ouch, twice the price is rough, fair enough.
Yeah but they don’t have the Robinson Jeffers book I’m looking for.
