Borders: A quiet escape from holiday shopping



At first I thought we were mildly insane to head out on the weekend before Christmas and go shopping.  I won't lie, the parking lot was a war zone and the check-out lines seemed to weave into infinity.  But after we secured our last minute purchases, to escape it all, we found ourselves tucked away in the back of Borders with a stack of books, solitude and quietness.  I must say it's a delightful change of pace from the frenzied race only feet from our nook.  

In my stack: 
Downtown Chic; From Wreck to Ravishing, Robert & Courtney Novogratz
Paul Klee Selected by Genius, Roland Doschka
Simple Style, Julia Bird
A16 Food+Wine, Nate Appleman
Remake it Home: The essential guide to resourceful living, Henrietta Thompson

Midwest Modern, Amy Butler
