This past Saturday was probably the best day of my life. I finally got to go to the Book Bazaar. It’s a giant book sale benefiting my university’s library. Last year there were over 62,000 books. The books are donated and most are ridiculously cheap, between 50 cents and three dollars cheap. They do have some antique books as well, like a first edition King James Bible and a first edition of Ernest Hemingway’s A Farewell To Arms. I was too awestruck to take pictures of either of them. Of course, I bought some books. You’ll see them in my next book haul. I can definitely say I got twelve books for less than twenty dollars. That’s the least amount I’ve ever spent on books! I will be posting my adventures at The Book Bazaar on my Tumblr once I get back online next Friday. Here are some of the pictures I took at the event:
I can’t wait until next year!
Awesome! I can’t wait to see what you got. My library’s yearly sale is in April they call it the “One Day One Dollar Book Sale” and I can’t wait to go… Last year I didn’t buy anything because it was so packed with people that I left early but this year I hope to find something!
I love hearing that. It’s such a great idea. I hope you have an awesome time!
That book bazaar sounds like heaven! Looking forward to see what you bought :)
It really was. The last Wednesday of the month is my post day for my book haul!
