My Borders Books & Music Obituary

Sad to say it for those who don’t know, but Borders bookstores are closing down in an estimated week or two, except for possibly a slim 40 out of over 400 that will be bought by a bigger company. I am personally extremely disappointed with the news, since I have been a great Borders advocate/supporter. For me, Barnes & Noble cut it for the first 10 years, but then I grew bored of their lacking selection and high prices (especially for coffee—$4-5 for a small, are you kidding me?).

Borders was a beloved hangout spot for friends and I, and the 20-75% off deals they sent every other day in the mail filled the knick-knack/journal lover inside of me with glee! For us, Borders will be truly missed, and we apologize with our fullest hearts that we didn’t buy enough Kula coffees to make the bill. We love you, BB!
