"South Pasadena is a great spot for finding a used book in an old shop, walking the quiet streets to a small cafe then sitting for a few hours. If you do plan on enacting this fantasy, you will need to stop at The Battery to pick up a used book. It's best to walk in with an open mind. If there is a specific book you are looking for, you probably won't find it in the stacks and stuffed shelves. So go in with an open mind- let a new book find you, then carry it to a nearby cafe and enjoy. Repeat each weekend for a happy life." - OSSO
