    It doesn't matter how hard Apple and Amazon try to convince me that the iPad and Kindle are…read morerevolutionising reading. I can't imagine choosing an electronic device over the pleasure of paper and ink. I know it's not very environmentally friendly but ever since I was a nipper I've been addicted to books. Handily, this branch of Waterstones stocks most of the books I grew up reading from childhood favourites The Mr Men and Where The Wild Things Are to teenage favourites like JD Salinger's Catcher in The Rye and Ray Shell's Iced. The fiction section isn't quite as ambitious or extensive as the company's flagship Manchester store on Deansgate but there's still lots of classic and contemporary novels to fire your imagination. My last purchase from here? John Wray's Lowboy and Philipp Meyer's American Rust. Two tremendous novels that made me want to go out and buy the authors' next books. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWtpfyEAbGU&feature=related

    I visited the Stockport branch of Waterstones yesterday, I pay Stockport a vistit roughly 3-5 times…read morea year and it is always a nice change from the overcrowding of Manchester city centre or the soviet-esque feel of Droylsden. The Waterstones is only a short walk from the bus stop and is placed conveniently on a corner so you don't walk past it, as I have done with other shops many a time. The shop like all Waterstones is very nicely decorated, no harsh flourescent lights or whitewashed walls to menace the eyes, the fact that all the books are on wooden shelves as opposed to creme metallic monstrosities is a bonus too. Waterstones has a wide selection of books whether you are after ancient greek philosophy or the latest ghost-written flannel by your favourite celebrity you are likely to find it here. The staff are virtually always cheerful and welcoming and are happy to help if you have any questions about a book you cannot find, their computer system isn't quite as cooperative. I did not buy anything yesterday, I am drowning in a sea of unread books at the moment so I thought better than to add to my burden. I did however buy a copy of the first series of Star Trek from HMV, perhaps more of that later.
