A Novel Idea Bookstore Novels & Stories

The lies rolled off my tongue with a practiced ease and it did not even feel bad because I knew that she was human and she did not need to know more than what I wanted her to know. “It seems like she is really stumped with all the work. I did not know that kids of your age were that much into books!” replied Helen and I put the mobile and all the other stuff I might need for a quickie. Who knows what might be required of me. I had already dropped off a group text to all of them to meet me near the curb of the store. “Well I have always read books and she also has the café attached to the bookstore which draws quite the crowd and it is a good choice. She told us last day that she is thinking

Heidi looks so innocent, so fragile and pure at first glance, but knowing what she is capable of doing with her mouth, and that perfect body of hers, I can’t look at her and imagine myself doing anything else other than fucking her to oblivion. “I was thinking… I’d like to have a bookstore where I could add my own decoration, everything I like. Kind of what you did with your office here,” she notes, gesturing around the room. “I love what you’ve done here, and I think it’d be nice to do something similar in my new shop. What do you think?” Her asking my opinion catches me off guard, but surprisingly, I feel happy that she did. It’s like she cares about what I think, and somehow that tells me

Isn't it natural for me to ask? After the taxi arrived in front of the bookstore, I entered the store and drowned myself among the shelves filled with books. I bought novels in random genres. Reading novels makes me feel like I am entering another world where I can feel what the main character is going through. It was quite fun; I could forget my troubles for a while. I fell when someone bumped into me. All the books I was holding were scattered on the floor. Come on, doesn't he see that this place is quite wide? Does it make sense to bump into someone in such a large place?

The neighborhood was quaint and half-sketchy. “Welcome to the best bookstore in the city.” Shayla swept a dramatic arm at the building and grinned at my stunned expression. “How have I never heard of this place before?” My heart raced as my mind was filled with endless prospects of what laid beyond the white wood door. Discovering a new bookstore was like discovering a new type of precious gem : exhilarating, wondrous, and a touch surreal. “I was born here. I spent My entire teenage years here!”

she said. “Yeah. Exactly. Like she had a book in her.” “Okay, that’s some legit weird spooky shit right there,” she said. “How so?” “Nah, just someone in a bookstore said that to me recently. That I had a book in me.” A quick shrug. “Weird.” “Damn right it’s weird.” Margo smiled. “I know, right?” “Right! I mean, a bookstore? For real? Are those even a thing anymore?” ***

asked Nancy, in a very fake sad voice. At half-past seven, Mrs Smith and Emma went for the grand opening of their neighbour's bookstore. Emma wore a causal t-shirt on her jeans along with her thick jacket and shoes. It was huge compared to the other bookstores in Roseville. This bookstore was a rectangular building with huge glass windows on either side of the wooden door. Their neighbour, Mr Walter, a tall but very lean man, welcomed them inside and guided them. The ground floor was devoted to the children's section and fiction. A small wooden table and a chair were also kept close to the door. Mr Walter told them that it was reserved for a special guest. The first floor was devoted to non

“What you would do instead is bring her more business because she will be providing the coffee to your cafe here.” I stared at Vincent not sure if I was looking at the same immature man I know. “So now that’s all settled, you should start thinking of the name of your bookshop,” he added, if I didn’t know him I would have thought he was excited. “Serendipity,” I blurted. “Serendipity Bookshop.”

After the shift, they walked out together. Rain had started again, soft and misty. Callie zipped her hoodie. Eli shoved his hands in his pockets. “I used to want to open a bookstore,” she said suddenly, like the words had been waiting behind her teeth all day. “Coffee bar in the corner. Book clubs. The kind of place that smells like cinnamon and old paper.” Eli smiled. “That sounds amazing.” “I still think about it sometimes.” “You should.” She shot him a sideways glance. “With what? Monopoly money?”

As I perused the books, I could feel Aidan’s gaze on me. The shop, much like the one downstairs, boasted an impressive selection. These were books to be enjoyed in the coffee lounge, not purchased or taken home. A smile tugged at my lips as I reached the romance novel section. So, Well Thumbed had these too. I wondered if they had hidden gems, perhaps something I hadn’t read or that Uncle Alex’s book club, Bound To Please, hadn’t discovered yet.

I slip some milk into it for her, just how she likes it, as she sits on the stool and watches me prepare the shop. "Could you do me a favor today?" She asks before taking a sip. "Sure thing. What's up?" I ask, another yawn slipping out despite my attempts to stifle it. "We have a new book club starting. Could you put it up on the inter-web?" She asks and I grin at her terminology. I started the book store's social media when I took this job almost three years ago during my freshman year of college. "Of course. What's the book about?" I ask.
