Assouline: A Book Haven

A couple of weekends ago, we made a trip to Las Vegas for a little fun.  Little did we know, we would stumble upon one of the most amazing bookstores EVER.  We could have spent hours there. 
The store: Assouline.  It appears to be a coffee table book specialist that dabbles in rare books.  The staff was really helpful and allowed us to take pictures.  They also told us this is their flagship store in the U.S.  They also handed us a copy of their latest catalogue.  It seems (listen up Francophiles) they are a French book store with most locations in Paris.  We found a unique spot right in the heart of Sin City - imagine that.  To visit and enjoy for yourselves, go to the City Center in Vegas and check out Crystals shopping center/museum. 
We have had a request to post a picture of our library.  We may just put up one of the pictures from Assouline and pretend it is our library.  After all, it is that lovely!
For your visual enjoyment:
