而另一个不同之处则是:在每本书下方附有一张卡片,上写亚马逊网站的顾客评分和书评.

Although Amazon Books does have the 'staff-favorites' section familiar to many bookstores, Cast said she wanted to share the voices of thousands of passionate readers that come on the site.

尽管亚马逊书店像许多书店一样,也设立了"员工最爱"专区,但卡斯特称她希望与顾客分享网上热情读者的心声.

'What better way to celebrate reading than to have the voices of readers under our books?' she said.

"要推崇阅读,还有比让读者说出对书籍的心声更好的方法吗?"她说.

Another way Amazon plans to incorporate readers' opinions is by including the highest-rated books on the shelves, even ones that aren't well-known or big sellers. 亚马逊采纳读者观点的另一种方法,就是将评分最高的图书上架,即使这些书知名度并不高、销量并不好.

That includes Bald, Fat & Crazy: How I Beat Cancer with One Daughter and Adopting Another, a book by Stephanie Hosford that has sold only 622,923 titles but has only five-star ratings.

这其中包括斯蒂芬妮·霍斯福德所著的《秃头、肥胖和疯狂:我是如何在怀孕和领养期间战胜癌症的》,这本书销量只有622923本,但得到的评价全是五星好评.

Other categories in the store will include Most Wished-For Cookbook' and 'Fiction Top Sellers in the Pacific Northwest', to specifically appeal to the Seattle customer base.

书店内的其他种类书籍还有:"最期待的烹饪书"和"太平洋西北地区畅销小说".这些对西雅图客户群具有特别的吸引力.

The prices at Amazon Books will be the same as it is online, and some of the company's online gadgets - including the Kindle and Fire tablets - will also be on display.

亚马逊书店中书籍的价格与在网上相同,而店中也会展示亚马逊的网上电子产品,包括Kindle和Fire平板.

But Cast said Amazon Books is first and foremost exactly what it's name says it is - about the books.

但卡斯特说亚马逊书店首先是一家名副其实的书店——与书有关.

And, although data plays a big part on what makes it to the shelves, Cast says it will have a lot of heart.

而尽管网络数据很大程度上决定了哪本书能上架,卡斯特说我们仍然会细心考虑.

'We're taking the data we have,' she said, 'and we're creating physical places with it.'

她说:"我们用手中的网络数据开创了实体书店."
