Definitely! Goodwill has some good deals too. I actually found an autographed book there before too, which was awesome. :)
I'm thinking we don't need the dining room. We can eat in the kitchen, and turn the dining room into a library! Just gotta get my parents on board. XD

I also just read Everlost. It leans a bit younger YA but I loved it.I got Daughter of Smoke & Bone, which I thought was excellent. The second half lost me a little bit, but it was an inventive and fresh read.
I bought Matched, which was somewhat slim on characterization, especially with the guys, and it unfolded slowly, but I liked it pretty much. The tension was well executed. I like books where kick-ass characters emerge. And I'm hoping in the next book, the MC proves me right.
And I bought Deadly Cool. Still need to read it.
