Vacation Photos from The Book Barn in Niantic, CT

WARNING: Book porn below! All those with bookstore fetishes may want to skip this post.

I spend a good chunk of each day either working on my own books or helping my critique group members with theirs. The rest of the time, I work at a library, where I frequently wrap up shifts by visiting my public library on the way home - even if I already have a bag of books from work with me in the car. You, my fellow bibliophiles, get it - even if we had forty-eight hours in each day we couldn't spend enough time with books.

My family just got back from our yearly visit to my sister's Massachusetts farm. Of course, as much as I love books, spending time with my little sis and her awesome husband (I couldn't have written her a better match!) was the best part of the trip. As far as attractions, though? Visiting the Book Barn in nearby Niantic, Connecticut was definitely the highlight. This used bookstore is so huge, they have several overflow buildings. (All the pics are just from their main store and you're not even seeing a quarter of that!) Plus, there are cats!
