I just got Walk on Earth a Stranger (The Gold Seer Trilogy, #1) by Rae Carson for when Jenny and I meet Rae Carson in March at the Tucson Book Festival!! I'm starting to slowly gather up my books now. I'll buy some books there to support the event but it gets expensive. Soooooo many amazing authors! Jenny, our heads are going to spin!!

I should get The Elfstones of Shannara (The Original Shannara Trilogy, #2) by Terry Brooks since Terry Brooks is also going to be at the Tucson event! I know he's going to be swarmed though!!

I think I have original 1st edition copies of the Shannara books in a box somewhere. I just have to find them before March! ;)

You met Rae Carson! That is awesome. Walk on Earth a Stranger (The Gold Seer Trilogy, #1) by Rae Carson is a great historical fiction. It was one of my favorites from last year.

I loved it too! I'm sorry about your bookstore, Harlee :(


message 7177: by Harlee (new)

Harlee | 1583 comments I'm really looking forward to reading it! Thanks Jenny, but sadly I never went there very often. It was a bit out of the way, you know?

Nancy (paper_addict) I bought The City. It was in the bargain books section. A hardcover for only $6.98.

I LOVED that book!!! Awesome deal!


message 7180: by Catherine (new)

Catherine Bruno | 771 comments I bought The Sword of Shannara because the one I checked out from the library was the trilogy and the book was heavy and hard to keep open, plus the writing was pretty small. The one I have is a paperback and will be easy to carry around.

Score! That's a good book. I got it for my daughter for Christmas when it first came out. It was a bummer when I saw it in the bargain section much later. Oh well. It was a gift and on sale at least when I purchased it.

message 7189: by Catherine (new)

Catherine Bruno | 771 comments The library by my house was having a booksale. I got The Sweet Far Thing, Fools Errand, A Streetcar Named Desire and Persuasion since my copy was falling apart. I would have gotten more, but I'm pretty picky and frugal.

I just bought the audiobook of The Passage (The Passage, #1) by Justin Cronin on sale for $4.95! I was planning that purchase sometime this month so it was a nice surprise to see it so cheap!

I just placed a nice order on Book Outlet. I'll share when they get here, but most are for the Tuscon Book Festival in March. Way cheaper to buy them from Book Outlet then at the festival! Although I'll buy a few there I'm sure!
