Phew! So, a month has gone by without a Friday Buys, and I figured it was about time. The pile has stacked up for so long, higher and higher, that I needed to put the books in their proper places. So, here is my Friday Buys (sorry the pictures are so dark...):
Cloaked by Alex Flinn
Won this one in a giveaway! Loved this book!
Princess of Glass by Jessica Day George - $8.00
Great book! Finally got the paperback and I love seeing it on my shelf. :) (Title leads to review.)
The Iliad by Homer - $3.50
My favorite of the two (Iliad and Odyssey). I lent out my previous copy and never got it back...decided it was time for a new one!
Rip Tide by Kat Falls - $11.00
LOVED THIS BOOK! I loved Dark Life and now this one. Read read read!
Seeing Redd by Frank Beddor - $.50
I know, I know, it's the second book and I haven't even read the first. Well, it was only two quarters...I couldn't pass it up!
The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James - $.50
I'm a huge fan of the Classics but I haven't had much time recently to read them. I told myself I wasn't going to buy any more, but this one was also two quarters. ;)
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J. K. Rowling -$1.00
I finally found it in great condition in hardcover! I said I wanted the dust jacket, but this was a good deal. If I find one with a dust jacket, I'll replace this one. But for now, I'm happy. :) now I just need to find Deathly Hallows and I'll have them all!
The Eternity Code by Eoin Colfer - $.50
I now have up to book 3! :)
The Titan's Curse by Rick Riordan - $.50
In reality this one was free because I traded for it, but the store charged me for tax and handling. (Title leads to review.)
East by Edith Pattou - $.50
Also at the exchange store. Super excited to read this one!!
Fablehaven by Brandon Mull - $.50
Traded at that same store. I've heard good things about this book...we shall see...
May Bird and the Ever After by Jodi Lynn Anderson - $.50
Another from the trade store. I'm interested in this one... My 14-year-old started it and put it down because she just wasn't interested. I wonder how I'll like it.
ANNNNNDDDDD:
Little Women by Louisa May Alcott - $8.00
1940's!!! Isn't it gorgeous??? I just LOVE it. More pictures below... I'm so happy it's on my shelf with all my vintage books! :)
What did you all get these last few weeks? Show your links in the comments so I can see! :)
SO jealous of your Little Women! I have a couple old ones, but that's gorgeous :oD
ReplyDeleteEast = Amazing. Seriously *amazing*...One of my favorite books.
Fablehaven - great series. I wish I could find a copy of East for 50 cents...
ReplyDeleteGreat books! I'm so curious to see what you think of East. I haven't read any of the retellings for that tale and I'm not sure where to start. I'm leaning toward Jessica Day George's version just because I like her.
