Lovely Little Shelf

Library Book Sale Score!

So, I know that I’ve talked a lot about getting my TBR pile down to a manageable size.

The thing is, I still need books to read… so when library book sales come around it’s hard for me to resist.

This weekend there were two within just a few miles of each other, so of course I hit them both up.

Here’s what I ended up with:

aprilsale

Eek! 23 books.

Total cost? $8.50.

You seriously can’t beat that.

At the first sale books were .25 and  .50 and I spent $5.50.  At the second, you got a grocery bag at the door and everything you could fit in it cost 3 bucks.

Oh. My. Word.

It’s better than Christmas.

    Oh my! That’s so awesome. Our library only does their sale once a year, but it’s always marked on my calendar!

    You can’t beat that for sure. A friend just loaned me True Colors, will read this summer.

    Can’t wait to see your review of Child 44. I found that one on my shelf recently and know nothing about it (except it was on a list of best mysteries… or something like that… last year)
