Well you should know by now that my weekends consist of Half Price Books. I actually went by myself Saturday. I spent quite a bit of money there, but in my defense I decided I would get some books that I have (and already read) and use them for giveaways. I mean seriously they had some awesome books this week. If I could I would have gotten tons more to use as giveaways. Maybe next week if I go and they still have them I will. The only problem is I don't know how people feel about getting one book in the series but not the other. Like they had a few Torment books by Lauren Kate but since that's the sequel. How good is that unless you have the first or want to buy it yourself. They also had some Hush, Hush books that I wanted to get so hopefully they will still be there. Like i said thoough I did get two books that are the begining of a series. (I've read the first book, and loved it. It has all sorts of supernautral being in it.) I have the second book, but haven't read it yet. The third I don't have at all, and I think a 4th is coming out April 2011. Anyways, I'm babbling I also went to the other one today (well Sunday) and found some freaking awesome books. I was excited to see they had these. (They'll be in an upcoming IMM though)
Here are my two bags worth of things I bought this weekend

Of course you can see one book. It complete my series though. So now I can try finishing THG and see if I can get into it. :) |

Harry Potter. Actually pretty neat looking |
I really wish we had a half price books here in Canada. I would save so much money. The Canadian prices are so much more, and it hurts my bank account.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you got in your next IMM.

I don't know what I would do without mine here. I don't even go into regualr book stores unless I really, REALLY want a book I can't find anywhere else.
ReplyDeleteOn one hand I wish we had a HPB here, but on the other hand, I think my wallet is grateful we don't have one. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'd mind getting a book from the middle of a series. Just so long as it's a series I'm interested in. Thank you for your thoughtfulness!
I was just thinking the same thing as Sara: I wish we had a Half-Price Books in Canada. But then I scroll down and see Small Review's comment and I agree, I think my wallet would take a beating if we did! Hope you enjoy Mockingjay! And cool postcard book! :)
ReplyDeleteSR- LOL Oh my wallat feels it very much, but I since I've lessened my bills the past month so I have some extra money to use also. Cool that's good to know I might just have to see what I can find. They'll probably books that look interesting to me, or are/were the topic of alot blogs. (Just depends on what I find) I really do enjoy buying things for other people just because I did it for my friend here, but since we no longer talk. I still have that tendency to buy for others. Plus I noticed alot of people don't have a HPB.
ReplyDeleteAylee- I hope I enjoy it too, I still have to read catching fire. (just hoping it keeps me interested unlike the first book) The postcard book I actually got for you if you wanted it.
