Rosie ~ I read Lord of Scoundrels a few months ago, but I got it from the library at the time. I've been looking for it ever since. :-) The sale actually started yesterday, but I was working so I missed the first day ~ there were still lots of good things today ~ makes me wonder what was there yesterday.
At 3:54 AM, Kristie (J)
It's the next day - but wasn't Blogger a bitch yesterday!?!?!? I ended up going to be 2 hours earlier than usual 'cause I was mad at it!
Holy Camolie did you ever score!! LOL How did you carry that many books? Let's see - from all the books you bought which ones do I think are good Hmmm - While I have a number of KMM, I've only read a couple, I don't read Laurens and you've read LOS so it can wait a bit for a reread *g* - I LOVED Spring Fancy by Spencer. It's been a while since I read it so it might be a bit dated but I really loved it when I read it.
Oooh, Oooh - I see Captives of the Night by LC. I just recently reread that one and LOVED it. And Flowers From the Storm. Laura Kinsale isn't for everyone - but if you like her that one is a wickedly good one!
Kristie ~ They had boxes available. I started out with my little library bag and eventually it was full PLUS I was carrying a stack. I snagged a box while in the YA section because I felt like my arms were going to give out any minute :-)
I haven't read Laura Kinsale before but I'd recognized the title, so I snagged it. Captives in the Night is the first edition from 1994.
I am now looking at my living room and thinking "Okay, I can put bookshelves there, and there, and there." I called my Mom last night ~ she says I need a bigger place just for my books alone. I have a one bedroom now ~ she jokingly says I should just get rid of my bedroom and put my library in there.
I accidentally went to a charity book sale yesterday. LOL Being the epitome of restraint, I only bought three books. And they weren't as cheap as yours, but hey, IT WAS FOR CHARITY.
Happy reading, you got some good books. I've got a few of those titles in my TBR, so it'll be nice to see what you think of them. :P
Wow, Devonna... as Kristie said, you did score :D Man, lots of good books and so cheap... can't believe it, 0.25$ and 1.00$. Dream land. Tears of the Renegade by Linda Howard... hmm, never heard of that one... I recognize a few good titles and well, they're all good authors :D
as for working part-time at Barnes and Nobles, at least, you'll get a discount on the books :D You have to look on the brighter side :D but good luck, I wish you get the job.
Tomorrow is Mcgill Bookfair :D It'll be my turn to be going through books :D can't wait.
Devonna, I was kind of forced to read yesterday. LOL I was watching my brothers while they were swimming and since I don't do swimming pools, I had to read or I would have been bored out of my mind. LOL
When I organized my shelves a few weeks back, I only came across one duplicate. It was Lori Foster's Jude's Law, I had one copy from the UBS and the other copy was a library book. :P
Jennie ~ I haven't read any other Heyer books, although I have several of them on my wishlist at the library. I'd like to read a few of her others before I read Lady of Quality, I think.
Ames ~ I'm almost done organizing! Talk about an all day project. I've found a few more duplicates, but I think I'm done now. I've had a few surprises ~ books I didn't even know I had. Sad thing is I even catalogue my books on librarything. I have Jude's Law from the library right now ~ I'll read it eventually (I hope). Dang reading funk.
At 8:22 AM,
Oh I so wish our library had a sale, or I would at least find a USB. Damn it I'm jealous! Ohhhh LoS!!!! Hehehe.
I loooooved Flowers From the Storm EXCEPT for the TSTL heroine. If you can read it as a story about the hero then, IMO, it's brilliant. Don' read it as a romance. I so wanted to strangle her!
At 9:50 AM,
Zeek ~ I usually like western romances, but haven't read one by LH yet. I separated my finds and my TBR piles yesterday and now have one stack that are books I have to remember to get to and another stack that I want to read but can wait on. I think the LH is in the stack I want to get to right away.
Mailyn ~ I haven't read Kinsale before ~ I think I have this book in my stack I want to read right away.
Nath ~ Well, it's only 2 days. I hope you find some great stuff! You'll have to be sure to post what you get.
OMGOsh that is a great load of books you got there, have you read Castles by JG, gosh I love that book...and what about Ransom? LOVE that one too...Spell of the Highlander??? Cian is a total stud! OMGOSH The Dark Highlander is on there too, LOVE ME SOME DAGEUS!
Gosh that's the bomb TBR list, you have much to look forward too sweets!
Blogger makes me want to chew nails...I swear! As for the books, that some haul you got there. You did great at the library. Those Karen Marie Moning books are addictive. I thought I was the last one to read LORD OF SCOUNDRELS...but I saw that on your list too.
BTW, COMMITMENTS by Barbara Delinsky is my favorite book of hers. Of course I haven't read it in years so I don't know if it will stand the test of time, but I adored that book when I first read it.
Have fun with your new books!
