This is only my second time attending a library book sale. My first one was Fall 2009. It's quite fun and there are some great finds! I mean, a lot of the books have been donated and most are actual library books (with the glossy cover, the call number, and the checkout card inside), but yeah, definitely great deals. I'm so happy. I bought things that I knew I'd love (or that someone would love). I'm a big King fan, so I just started picking up all the King books I didn't own.

Always Jack - by Susanne Gervay

I recently read the new book [Always Jack] by Susanne Gervay. It has been given the stamp of approval from one of Australia’s most influential bodies – the Cancer Council. It’s a rare endorsement from the organisation, commending the novel for its exploration of cancer and its impact on families. Worth a read!

Just in... The Fall - Guillermo Del Toro & Chuck Hogan
