Used book sales are my absolute favorite, and my library always have the best sales, so I totally understand your complete happiness here. Cheap books are the best! Have you read Unbroken before? If not, well you better stop everything you're doing and read it now because it is just that good. Even though it's nonfiction, it reads like riveting fiction and Louie Zamperini's story is at once horrific and awe-inspiring. I really need to reread it!
ReplyDeleteUnbroken is one of my husband's favorite books ever. The early Mitford books are so enjoyable. Hope you love them!
ReplyDeleteUsed book sales always yield some great picks. I hope you love Shanghai Girls and Unbroken!
ReplyDeleteI love buying books from a used book sale and giving them a second home. And it's cheap :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Used book sales are the best.
ReplyDeleteI want to read Whistling Past The Graveyard. ENJOY all of your books and the rest of your reading week.

Nice! Although I love shopping the sales, I've been avoiding thrift stores and library sales because of lack of storage space for even more books. I have no self-control when I find books for $1.00 :)
ReplyDeleteNice haul! There are several in your pile that I have on my TBR as well. Hope you enjoy them all.
