Yeah maybe you don't get a book the second it comes out, but if it's good and worth the wait, who cares?

I love the library and I support the library. But I love bookstores, too. Sometimes there are books I want from the library and sometimes there are books I want to own (and often do read again).
I guess I'll be more supportive of the locally-owned bookstore, because Barnes & Noble just doesn't do it for me.
