courtney I LOVE THAT PLACE! I lived in Pilsen for 5 years and of course one of the most beautiful book stores (that one) had to open right after I moved to a new neighborhood! Next stop: open books warehouse? :) 8y
8little_paws @courtney not this time, but perhaps next time!! I haven't been to that open books before, but I've been to the one on Lake 8y
courtney @8little_paws the warehouse is great! ARCs are $1, and every other book is $4 no matter what. I used to live right down the street :') which hood do you live in? 8y
8little_paws @courtney that's awesome! I'll check it out. There is an abundance of awesome literary stuff in Chicago. I've lived here for 14 years and currently I live in Rogers Park 8y
