Monday Morning Madness #30: Post Library Book Sale

Ever since the new library was built in my town, there has been an annual book sale on the weekend (Thursday, Friday and Saturday) before Halloween. Though in the past there are usually older books there, I still love to go and I do buy a few books, but I forgot about the sale last year, only thinking about it the weekend after. This year I remembered to go to the sale on Saturday when all the books (paperback & hardback) were 25 cents each.

I know! I know! Like the last thing I need is more books when I already have gobs of books at home on my bookshelves and piled up in closets, but I can't pass a good bargain. Plus, the library book sale had newer books this year.

I bought two Jane Kirkpatrick hardbacks (which I don't remember the titles) for my grandmother. Then I bought eight books for myself.

The books are:


Turn Up The Heat: A Gourmet Girl Mystery
by Jessica Conant-Park & Susan Conant


The Observations
by Jane Harris

Hope Rekindled
Striking a Match, Book 3
by Tracie Peterson


The Help
by Kathryn Stockett


The Foretelling
by Alice Hoffman


Dust and Shadow: An Account of the Ripper Killings
by Dr. John H. Watson & Lyndsay Faye


Devil May Care: The New James Bond Novel
by Sebastian Faulks writing as Ian Fleming


The Resort
by Bentley Little

The books all look like great reads. These are my backup winter books, so if I get snowed in I'll have something to read or I'll just get bored later this week and read them all.
