Bought:
So when I went to the OLC Expo last month I stopped by the Junior Library Guild’s booth. They’re located about 15 minutes outside of Columbus and they were handing out fliers for their warehouse book sale. I remembered on Saturday that it was going on so I ran out there and HOLY AMAZING BOOKS! All of their hardback books that would normally cost $16 or $17 were all $5. If I bought the following books in store at full price the total would have been $100.91 before tax and I only spent $30!!! That’s quite a deal!
I so could have come home with so much more but I exercised some self restraint. I’m so excited to know about this sale which they do twice a year, in the spring and fall. And it’s open to the public! I thought it was just for us librarians and teachers but nope, it’s open to all! Thanks JLG! Several books are dystopian! My current fav!
Dark Life – Kat Falls
The Other Side of the Island – Allegra Goodman
Girlfriend Material – Melissa Kantor
Once a Witch – Carolyn MacCullough
The Rules for Hearts – Sara Ryan
Creature of the Night – Kate Thompson
