Cheap Book Finds

[VIDEODROME]

I checked out a moving sale up the road and found some good cheap books. Stephen King: Misery, Stephen King: The Dead Zone, Clive Barker: Books of Blood Vol. 2, and a collection of E. A. Poe stories.

All four books were only a dime each and were actually in decent shape.

It's always fun to find good books for cheap and in decent condition...a few of the libraries in my county system are having spring book sales to get rid of their discarded books...I am tempted to go see what they are selling. Only problem is, I have no room for more books!! Oh the woes of being a bibliophile!

That's my problem also.

Our system had a library sale back in February. I walked out with 26 books and spent $21. As for space - they can always be stacked in a corner. At least that's what I tell my wife.

I love cheap books! I get my books almost exclusively at our library's store. I can almost-new hard cover books anywhere from 1-4 dollars each. I love it!
