Oh, I'd love to. My ultimate dream job. Or owning a library...

I would love it. But how could I get any work done being surrounded by all those books.

Yes, I wanted to do this a number of years ago - book store and coffee shop. Unfortunately, I live in a small town and it would never have lasted. But one can dream!

I would love to own a bookstore, honestly. My mom and I have talked about opening a used bookstore, but I doubt that'll ever happen. I'll just keep dreaming!

Yes! When I was a student, I asked the only bookstore (and it's second hand thrift stuff) in my city if I can work part time. LOL, they didn't answer.

I've considered it to be honest, I love reading books so it would fit right in with my life

To be honest I could picture myself owning and operating a small bookstore like the one in "You've Got Mail". I just loved her little bookstore.

Yes. To be surrounded by books, to share that love--absolutely.

Never dreamt of owning a bookstore but I've dreamt of working in one. I would love to work there and I tried to find a job like that but...it didn't turn out so well.

I wouldn't be able to afford it at the moment but maybe one day..
And I remember when I was younger that I would tell all of my friends about this bookstore inside my house.
I didn't mean it as in we were selling our books at the time but that my house was attached to a bookstore and everyone believed me.
I didn't think of it as lying but make believe because I was around 5-6 years old at the time but I would love to own a bookstore!

I wouldn't be able to sell anything because I would cry everytime it was time to part with a book.

I'd rather have a giant library of books in my own house. I love book shopping!

I would love to own a book store. it would be two storys the upstairs would be all antique books and fancy seating and look edgar allen poe creepy. but the down stairs would be all modern and hip with newer books and a really cool place for teens and young adaults to hang out.
I would also have a coffee shop built in toward the back.
and posters of all my favorite books lining a wall.
there would also have to be a really cool spot set up for authors to do book readings and signings.
