In The Soup

Book Soup is one of the best independent bookstores in town. It was a nice hangout on the Strip, if you could find parking. (And Tower Records used to be across the street.)

The owner, Glenn Goldman, put it up for sale just before he died. The question is will it go the way of quite a few other indies struggling against the chains. (Actually, the bigger questions is can physical bookstores last at all? Tower Records seemed impregnable not that long ago.) I don't know the economics on the area, but I'd think such a central location on the Strip can still make a go of it.
