Chester County library book sale was this weekend. Yesterday hardbacks were $2.50 each and we picked up a few things but it was close to closing and we would be in the area today. Today you could fill a paper shopping bag with books for $5. I picked up some of the Sookie Stackhouse series that became the TV series Trueblood. I've never read them. Picked up some other series I'e never read. I went into the 'special room' where they keep the books that they want to charge more for. They cut the price in half for today and I loaded up on childrens books. I got some Hardy Boys and found Huckleberry Finn, Red Badge of Courage, and a few others in the Great Illustrated Classics series. 50 cents each

I seriously loaded up on cookbooks, since my daughter-in-law likes them and since there were some BBQ/Chili/Rotisserie books for me.

Between the Mrs and myself, we filled one bag with 'special room' books and three bags with 'all you can bag' books. Probably about 60 lbs of books.

My vacation is coming up. Looking forward to some reading time.
