Went to my local library sale here in Iowa last week, and though they didn’t have any books for 10 cents this time, I’m still pleased with my finds. I got the following 4 books for $3:
Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
What the Dead Know by Laura Lippman
On the Road by Jack Kerouac
The Likeness by Tana French (I got In the Woods last year at this same library sale!)
And then I went to my local Goodwill (which I LOVE) and found American Pastoral by Philip Roth (a Pulitzer winner) for only $0.60.
Went to a library sale here in Kentucky, and though I didn’t come away with much, I’m very pleased with my finds! I would have bought so much more if I had been in Iowa, but I already have too many books to bring back that I had to limit myself.
Keepers of the House by Shirley Ann Grau — this is an older Pulitzer that I got for 10 cents!!
Black Rain by Masuji Ibuse — 10 cents — I was already thinking of purchasing this for the Japanese challenge!
The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers — 10 cents
Arrowsmith by Sinclair Lewis — 25 cents — another Pulitzer winner
The Golden Notebook by Doris Lessing — 10 cents
The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly – $1.00
A great day, and I may go back tomorrow because they’re always putting new books out. I’m just in love with library sales and always will be…
See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. (1 John 3:1, ESV)
