Our first date was to Chamblin's Uptown. Anthony was early, and I was, of course, late. I thought this could really be something special when he bought a copy of my favorite book by the end of the date. After the date, Anthony texted me to tell me he had never enjoyed book shopping more- and I agreed.

After a lunch at our favorite downtown spot, Anthony suggested we go to Chamblin's Uptown, where we had our first date. He seemed a little nervous, and I couldn't figure out why. While browsing in the classics, Anthony got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I was so surprised I dropped the ring box, but of course I said yes! Best time book shopping, ever.
