慢读时光 从一间特色书店开始

□ 文/本刊记者 杨艳

一间好书店，不仅是一座城市的文化地标，还是许多书友的灵魂归处。作为每个城市必不可少的公共空间，书店蕴含着整座城市浓郁的人文情怀，是一道独特的城市风景线。本期推荐两家特色书店，走进它们，安静而缓慢地翻开一本书，让我们在书籍中体验慢读时光的魔力，享受城市中的一角宁静。

南之山书店 可以住宿的书店

重庆市南岸区石牛村双狮子组128号

与市区大多数囿于商场的书店不同，南之山书店隐匿于南山之上，位置偏僻，不太好找，但异常火爆。传说这是一家非常傲骄的书店，只接待预定的书友。书店负责人解释说这实属无奈。由于书店模式较小，接待能力有限，节假日来店的书友较多。为了保证大家拥有良好的阅读体验，于是把位置留给提前预定的书友，并非故意将未预定者拒于门外，而平日里就不需要预定了。

书店由四层楼组成，一楼为公共阅读区、展览区、餐饮区、放映厅，楼上为民宿区、画室。书店有三个露台，可以将巍峨南山与涛涛长江尽收眼底，是观赏山景、眺望江景的绝佳位置。南之山是一家可以住宿的书店，一个书房设置一个主题，关上门，就成为了私人书房。书店还时常将时令食材制作成新式甜点，让书友享受到大自然的馈赠。

重庆购书中心 24小时不打烊

重庆购书中心是重庆第一家24小时营业的书店。书店内部陈列充满现代气息，各个角落安放着样式简单的桌椅，灵活的展示空间方便书友取拿、浏览，书店还为新书发表、读书分享会提供了专门的场地。

书店拥有传统出版物10万种，约20万册书，另有许多新奇有趣的文创产品销售。除了丰富的藏书、整洁明亮的场所，书店以24小时不打烊的特色，吸引了城中大批书友来此夜读。据书店负责人介绍，平时晚间约有500人，周末是平时的两倍，目前人数还在不断增加中。城中文青把这里当成流连忘返的空间，在这里除了可以阅读，还可以参加书店每月不定期举行的文化沙龙、书友会等活动；可以喝咖啡，看累了还可以靠在沙发上打个盹儿，时间就这样在悄无声息间流逝。
