Borders shutting down country wide.... Heart aching....
meg_evonne:
Where will I go to browse those books eye to spine? 40 minutes away in Des Moines? No way.
Tis a sad, sad day. Someone come in and buy out those leases and start up a new bookstore----please!?!?!?
Chiana:
I am always sad to see any bookstore close, whether it is a little one or big. I am greatful that I have a B&N right in the town I work in.

Borders didn't have their own ereader. The readers will still work, and you can still get books elsewhere.
OZ:
I was sad to see them closing. I was in one of our local stores yesterday and all the employees looked shell shocked. Luckily I live in a large city so there are a couple of Barnes and Noble stores near by but I hate to see book stores close. Of course in todays job market, I hate to see any large employer go belly up. It's truly sad.
