Thanks Rachel and Alondra!

Nope Alondra I have not yet read that series. I am not even sure why I bought it since it is fantasy. I guess I just really wanted to try something else in the genre. We will see what happens.

Rachel I have read For one more day and loved that one. So when I find his books, especially on the sales racks, then I get them. They are heartwarming, quick, fun reads. I still wanna read the Timekeeper too!


message 2419: by Alondra (new)

Alondra Miller Summer Knight which is another in the Dresden files, which I am hooked on. Amazonia, which was recommended by Veronica, there is also a huge following for him, so want to check that out. The Cat Who Saw Stars, which is a cute little series so far, namely because of the cat. :D

also got Daemon, which sounds promising; The Bat (which will NOT pull up) by Jo Nesbo; and Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, which i read a long, long time ago. I want a fresh reread of the book, so i don't count it on my TBR. :D

A hardback copy of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith , I had it in paperback, but hardbacks are better.
The Man in the Picture The Man in the Picture by Susan Hill
The Lightning Thief The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1) by Rick Riordan
All the Living All the Living by C.E. Morgan
Two books in the Pennyfoot Hotel historical mystery series Shrouds of Holly and another one I can't recall the title at the moment.
Plus the whole set of Twilight books in hardback for my friend who's been wanting them, and four books for the kid. Was a good trip I think.

Kit★ (xkittyxlzt) | 345 comments Goodwill was good to me again. From this one I picked up:

Wool Wool Omnibus (Silo, #1) (Wool, #1-5) by Hugh Howey
The Monstrumologist The Monstrumologist (The Monstrumologist, #1) by Rick Yancey

And most exciting of all, The Hostile Hospital The Hostile Hospital (A Series of Unfortunate Events, #8) by Lemony Snicket . I've been working for nearly 4 years collecting this series in hardback whenever I found them on any Goodwill trips or yard sales, and at long last, I found the last one I needed! I was doing the happy dance.
Also got a book for my friend, four for her little girl, and eight for my kiddo. I love book hunting! :D

Janie Johnson | 6303 comments Mod
Yay holly nice haul! I too want to collect the Snicket books. I have 3 of them all hard back, and I can get all of them easily, just not wanting to pay the $6 each on them right now. The 3 I got were all a $1 on the sales rack so I am hoping I will find more there again, or I might just break down and start buying them. Either way, glad you got your last one! YAY!
