Good afternoon, this is Mitsuru Kirijo.
For those who don't already know, I have just opened a new establishment, House of Leaves. It's a combination of tea shop and book store.
I was considering hosting a book club at the shop. It will be held on a fortnightly basis, in the evenings, after closing time.
There will, of course, be refreshments for those concerned about that.
Please let me know if you are interested. I will also gladly accept suggestions for reading material.

Yes... That's true of all liquids unfortunately.
I suppose an element of trust is required in that I expect customers to exercise a reasonable amount of care around the books.
That and I generally wouldn't expect them to take the books over to the cafe area to read unless they had purchased them first.
no subject
oh that makes sense
i did not know there were different areas
then do you have a dictionary i can buy
no subject
...Is there anything else you would like? Perhaps a thesaurus?
[ You know, might as well have both in a matching set. ]
no subject
i will buy both
[The thesaurus is the one full of words that mean the same thing, right? That would also be very helpful in interpreting what the hell people here are trying to say.]
no subject
…Pardon me for prying but are you working on something?
[ Hence the book choices. Of course she also supports people just wanting to better their vocab. ]
no subject
i used to read news papers but i have not seen one here so i thought a dictionary would help
no subject
I do know that we have a journalist in our midst here and I did suggest to him that perhaps he might start his own paper here. Perhaps he will at some point.
It sounds as though you could use some tuition.
no subject
tuition?
no subject
Someone to assist in educating you and expanding your vocabulary.
no subject
i have never had a teacher
are there many here in aldrip/?
no subject
I'm not sure if I've met anyone in Aldrip who can officially call that their profession but you don't strictly have to be a qualified teacher to assist another in their learning. Especially as we aren't in a formal education setting.
[ Ugh, curse her inability to not interfere and encourage others' learning but... ]
...If you aren't able to find one then perhaps I could assist you?
no subject
that would help a lot!
no subject
[ …What she actually meant. ]
no subject
that would help a lot too!
no subject
My other suggestion would be the library.
no subject
but your shop sounds very nice
i can do chores or clean the store in return
