During weekend, whenever I have a chance, I like to go to the bookstore in the mall nearby my house. There are a few stores that I frequent but I like to go to Borders more. It carries a lot more titles and the store is big too. I like to go there to buy books and magazines and also to get ideas for the next niche to go after.
