You got one that I want – In the Woods! I consider it a success if you only get one book.

I recently picked up The Late George Apley too. I have it on my nightstand along with Charles Pallisner’s Unburied.

I’ll have to look into that Stephen King book, since it’s gettin such great feedback in your comments.

I haven’t read *In the Woods* either, but it’s on my wish list.

You found some great books this week.

I agree with Sandy – On Writing is one of the best books on that topic.

You did well, Michelle! I am going to the Redding Library sale this morning. The last one they had was in August and I got there fifteen minutes after it started and it was SWAMPED with people and already picked over. Today, I’m going early! At the last one, I left carrying a box of books so heavy I needed help to my car…and only spent $13. I hope it is as good today *rubs hands together greedily*

$1 is still a good price for trade paperbacks.
Quality, not quantity, at book sales should be the mantra.

Have you read much King? That’s one of the few I haven’t read, but I understand it’s excellent. And nice snag on an early Pulitzer.

On Writing is one of the most enjoyable books of its kind.
And I don’t generally read his fiction. You’ll be glad you bought that one.
