Green Apple Books

Last weekend Toshi finally bought a GPS, which in my opinion is one of the greatest things ever. No more using me as a map, no more screaming at each other because he has to make a u-turn! We took it to San Francisco to 'test' it out and ended up on Clement St. and 6th looking for a Japanese restaurant he'd heard about. Killing some time before it opened, we decided to go into Green Apple Books.

Why has no one ever told me about this place? Why am I dating someone who doesn't read and won't let me linger in the stacks for a couple of days?

It's the type of independent bookstore that Borders and B&N kills- a huge labyrinth of shelves with new and used books, magazines, and music, a knowledgeable staff that reviews everything (!), and awesome sales. We had to call each other to find our way back to each other.

If you've never been, go. If anyone is up for a field trip, I'm in.
