After 15 years as an engineer I decided to spend time with my true passion: books. It is great having a job where every day people come in and want to tell me about what they are reading and find out what I recommend. I read extensively in science fiction and fantasy, manga, history, mystery and cookbooks, with a smattering in other areas. I also moderate the science fiction and manga clubs for the store.  Read Bruce's Recomendations.

Hi all – I’m Ross. My grandma says that I am, and always have been, an inquiring mind: what better place than a bookshop to find the answers to all my questions, big and small. Read Ross's Recomendations.

Howdy everybody, my name's Whitney, and I'm a book-aholic.  I feel most at home in the literature section, where I often find myself immersed in the lives of awkward and unlucky characters.  Some of my favorite authors include Adam Rex, Daniel Handler (AKA Lemony Snickett), Christopher Moore, Shaun Tan, Jonathan Safran Foer, and Steve Toltz. Read Whitney'sRecomendations.

Ty

My name is Ty (waiting for the AA type response) --I am addicted to books. I spend all of my discretionary funds on books and food. I read a lot of science fiction and fantasy and a bit of manga; I also like non-fiction: history, philosophy, religion, and literary criticism. Please tell me about books you enjoyed so I can enjoy them too. Read Ty's Recomendations.

Hi, I'm Shellie. I love to learn about all sorts of things -zen, poetry and the like. I like to read more than one book at a time. I also love talking to people - Let's chat about "shoes and ships and sealing wax."
