Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments I hit Ollie's recently, and not only did I find some fabulous cheap flooring to install in my house - I found these!

Hardbacks:
Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1) by Kristin Cashore The Line (The Line, #1) by Teri Hall Extraordinary by Nancy Werlin Wildefire (Wildefire, #1) by Karsten Knight Goliath (Leviathan, #3) by Scott Westerfeld Imaginary Girls by Nova Ren Suma

Softcover:
The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson

I love the edition of Sky - much prettier than the US cover.

$26 for all of them. Average was about $4 each. Not bad for hardcovers.

That place just astonishes me every time I go in. Graceling in hardback? You just never know. And I had already gotten Leviathan and Behemoth there on an earlier trip - so finding Goliath was a bonus. That happened with the Across the Universe series too.

Of course, I do have to spend at least an hour poring over all the shelves. It's like I fall in and can't get out (lol!)
