Borders -- Burlington, Vermont Borders is a great place to browse on the Church Street Marketplace. As far as chain store bookstores go, you could do worse (ever been to a Waldenbooks?). Borders carries everything -- books, CDs, DVDs, magazines, note cards, journals, seasonal items, you name it -- for mind, body, and soul. With this much shelf space you can usually find several different titles from the same author and even those more obscure cult authors that other chain stores don't carry. The staff is friendly and helpful, as for the price I can't say the same. Sure Borders has 40% discounts on bestsellers and occasionally runs "specials," and the Borders Rewards Program is worth it (heck, it's free!), otherwise you're paying full price, especially on catalog DVDs and CDs. The great thing about shopping for books, CDs, and DVDs in Burlington is that you have options. Stay inside the "Borders" on Church Street, browse or buy, it's your money, right?

Reading is one of my favorite activities. I find it relaxing and peaceful. I like to spend an afternoon browsing the shelves at Borders Books. I recently purchased a great biography of legendary Red Sox baseball player Ted Williams. This bookstore has something for all tastes. They even have a cafe where you can have a bit to eat and drink. Sometimes there is acoustic entertainment as well.
