false 156140 Village Books in Bellingham, Washington. Books have always been a big part of our lives but especially since we opened the store in 1980.

It's been our pleasure and privilege to meet hundreds of authors and to count a number of them among our friends--Steve Martini, Ivan Doig, Sherman Alexie, Laura Kalpakian, Barbara Kingsolver--to name just a few.]]> 62 male Bellingham, WA 06/2007 12/2009 98 165 164 true 5858320 read 1 true 322086 currently-reading 0 true 322085 to-read 1434: The Year a Magnificent Chinese Fleet Sailed to Italy and Ignited the Renaissance (Hardcover) by Gavin Menzies]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72591169 http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51pfviFvrhL._SL75_.jpg 156140 Chuck http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1194514064p2/156140.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/156140-chuck Sat, 26 Sep 2009 16:31:27 -0700 Ellen Foster (Paperback) by Kaye Gibbons]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/36572412 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1223676277s/277397.jpg 156140 Chuck http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1194514064p2/156140.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/156140-chuck Thu, 30 Oct 2008 13:41:53 -0700 Peak: How Great Companies Get Their Mojo from Maslow (Hardcover) by Chip Conley]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/31113466 http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51LDgUV6NsL._SL75_.jpg 156140 Chuck http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1194514064p2/156140.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/156140-chuck Sun, 24 Aug 2008 23:16:47 -0700 Imagining Argentina (Paperback) by Lawrence Thornton]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/31113434 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170268590s/44762.jpg 156140 Chuck http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1194514064p2/156140.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/156140-chuck Sun, 24 Aug 2008 23:15:31 -0700 A Thousand Acres: A Novel (Paperback) by Jane Smiley]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/31113427 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1169585027s/41193.jpg 156140 Chuck http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1194514064p2/156140.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/156140-chuck Sun, 24 Aug 2008 23:15:01 -0700 Peace Like a River (Paperback) by Leif Enger]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/31113415 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172877982s/227571.jpg 156140 Chuck http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1194514064p2/156140.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/156140-chuck Sun, 24 Aug 2008 23:14:46 -0700 Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West (Wicked Years, #1) by Gregory Maguire]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/31113396 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255675230s/37442.jpg 156140 Chuck http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1194514064p2/156140.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/156140-chuck Sun, 24 Aug 2008 23:13:44 -0700
