A dollar to pass the time? Yes please.

Chalk it up to a longer commute to work. I'm cruising through books like I'm back in high school AP English, the only difference being I'm actually reading these books. Strand Books near Union Square has been clutch. New, used, and out of print books run a muck. The $1 specials set outside the shop are like a yard sale on steroids. No order, rhyme or reason which means nothing to do but take time to sift through the shelves. Today I found a gem of a biography. Past the Scientology collections and beside a romance novel sat a hardcover about the Yankee Clipper, Joe DiMaggio. For a dollar oh-eight. No wonder Dan Humphrey is such a fan of this place.
