Great Bookstore 4/18/2006

If you like books, you will LOVE Myopic. It's one of those bookstores with the huge,towering, winding shelves that you can just get lost in. Every topic and genre is covered. As far as price- I think it's about level with Amazon. Plus, it's right off the Damen Blue Line. Can't beat that! more
