At the Ace of Spades weekly book thread, Perfesser Squirrel reports on going to a library book sale.
And buying 12 books.
Last time I went to a library book sale, I got 26 books, an audio book, four or five magazines, a stack of videos, and a stack of records.
Next Saturday, I’m going to the Clever branch of the Christian County Library for its annual book sale. If I only come away with 12 books, it probably means there were only twelve books left. I mean, it will be $3 bag day. Last year, I got 36 books into two bags. My first job as a grocery bagger continues to save me money.
But Perfessor Squirrel, who claims to work at a university, is a rookie. One does not get to the next level of book ownership at 12 a week.
