The Grove
"I hated my family’s weekly outings to Barnes & Noble at the Grove and got constant headaches when I went in a library or a bookstore."
Anyone with any sense of individuality would hate the "Grove". Mass marketing to a bunch of materialistic minded consumers......
There is no way in Hades to compare a library to a bookstore, especially one in the Grove.
