(Wow, that's a big sad face!) I just cancelled my Powell's Bookstore subscription plan. I'm a little sad about it. I really liked supporting Powell's, but I wasn't as excited as I used to be when I received the box in the mail. Additionally, I decided if I was going to buy books I wanted to support my many local indie bookstores. I hope Powell's will forgive me.
saresmoore I hate that feeling! But I am sure you made a good choice. Shop local! 8y
Megabooks Sounds like a good choice for you. 8y
Hooked_on_books Powell's with both forgive you and be there for you when you visit. Have fun at those locals! 8y

LeahBergen I think book subscriptions would be a bit tricky for me, too. I'm sure I would enjoy a couple of months and then ... meh. 8y
Suet624 @saresmoore Thanks for your support! 😁 8y
Suet624 @Booksandcooks I think it is - I find innumerable ways to feel guilt though. 8y
Suet624 @Hooked_on_books Thank you so much for saying that. It may me feel a bit better. 😁 8y
Suet624 @LeahBergen In the old days Powell's included really fun food and merch that keep me hooked. But yeah, I realized I like the bookstore shopping experience. ❤️ (edited) 8y
kspenmoll I get Powell's subscription but find I cannot keep up with the reading so may stop myself. ❤️ unfortunately although there is a used bookstore 30 minutes away from my home, any local small bookstores are 45 min to an hour away. Even UConn has lost its COOP to Barnes & Noble this past year. 7y
Suet624 @kspenmoll That's so frustrating about UConn. Fortunately for me I have many local indie bookstores and I want to keep it that way. 😀 7y
