I always have a book or author in mind when I go to a book store. I have walked past the displays anon mentions, but they are ‘whats new’ advertising so they are flashy and change often.
My complaint is that the types of books I like are given less and less shelf space every year. Romance and children’s books have mostly replaced science fiction and fantasy. I guess the stores know what sells and stock it.
Presumably science fiction and fantasy readers are more likely to use e-books and audio-books over paper books and more likely to use online stores over brick and mortar than some other demographics.
