My favorite bookstore is Half Price Books and I am there quite often. In my own defense, I try to stick to the clearance section but it ends up being my downfall. How can anyone expect me to pass up books for $1? I just grab everything that looks good or is part of a series that I need. Other customers have actually come up to me in the store to ask questions. One guy actually said "Sorry, with all those books I figured you must work here." I don't actually buy everything I originally grab, I put some back. But I do take a picture of it with my phone so that I can add it to my TBR list on Goodreads.
So why are you lounging on the futon in my studio when you should be reading?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteJust kidding hon. I love you.

I am just as bad as you. My fav store is The Book Inn. It's a half off or trade 2 for 1 with a huge specials area. I beeline to it first and then move on to genres I like. I usually have a large grocery bag full when I leave.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one! I have a huge re-usable shopping bag from Half Price Books, which I conveniently forget to bring with me every time. Lately I've been leaving the store with at least 10 books
