Strand Bookstore

Strand Bookstore. One word? Meh. Need some synonyms? Blarg. Eh. Underwhelming. Overrated.

It's big. It has books. It's a bookstore. On a scale of Barnes and Noble in Tribeca to Three Lives, I give it an independent public college book store rating. Worth noting: it's one of the world's largest used bookstores. Strand's slogan is "18 Miles of Books". One of the reasons I like Three Lives is the small but choice selection of books. Strand seems to care more about quantity than quality.

Anyways...
