It would appear not. That's unfortunate.

My heart would cry when the book just falls at the bottom of the machine. I wish they had one of those fancy mechanisms that lowers down the item for you.

If I ever came across this, I would have to buy a book. Iโ€™ve never bought a book from a vending machine. I want to buy a book from a vending machine.

Saw a religious one on the way to visit the Western Wall in Jerusalem yesterday. They're pretty awesome.

Hopefully we can get book vending machines everywhere!
