What kind of literature can you find in a typical Helsinki bookstore?

Moving to Finland was probably one of the ballsiest things I’ve ever done in my life. It has been a fun ride, but there are a few things I miss. My dog for one, my car, but the thing that stands out is Amazon. I was practically a platinum member at that place; my entire family would receive things in the mail, weekly, from this site. Buying books in actual shops is something reserved for the weekend when you’re out and about and don’t mind paying MSRP for something you could probably find used for less than half the cost online. I stumbled into this bookstore next to the Stockmann by the Helsinki Railway Station and my attention was immediately focused on a small placard that said “technology.” Look what I found:
I’ve never seen anything like this and I’ve been in the Barnes and Noble in Manhattan and the heart of Dallas.
Would be nice to read more about your little trip
What sort of things would you like to know?
You say “moving to Finland”.. wow.. I thought you are there only a brief visit. How long are you planning to stay? I’ll be visiting Helsinkin in August, perhaps we can grab a beer.
Could you pls tell us details how and why you’ve moved here in Finland? I think I missed that part, even I tried to keep up with you
