Today has been one of those perfect Saturdays, you know
those days, when you wake up and are ready to face the day. I put on one of my
favorite outfits and headed out to a book sale that was being offered near me.
I picked up my brother and we went on purchasing spree. I ended up getting 15
books for $16. Here is a list of my books and a note or two about them.
- Three Sisters Island Trilogy by Nora Roberts: This three book series is one of my favorites that I read as a teen. Sadly I did not keep the series but I remember reading the series and am looking forward to reading the books again and again.
- The Girl Who Played with Fire Trilogy by Stieg Larson: This is a series that I have wanted to purchase for quite some time but didn’t want to shell out the cash for. So I was so happy to find it on sale at such a great price!
- Message in a Bottle, The Guardian, A Bend in the Road, At First Sight and True Believer by Nicholas Sparks: I truly enjoy Nicholas Sparks books. I have read a number of his books turned into movies and have not been disappointed yet. My favorite would have to be Safe Haven. I keep some of them and donate the others when I am finished reading.
- A Kiss in Time by Alex Flinn: This is one of my favorite top 5 books. I love this book and wanted a copy and now I have a nice hardback to keep!
- Kick the Clutter: I love organizing and these books always interest me so I’m excited to start reading it.
- Small Spaces: A book on interior design, which is a passion of mine. Can’t wait to read.
- In Style Getting Gorgeous: A little book about ways to take care of yourself and your body.
I was very happy with my
purchases! I went a little crazy with Nicholas Sparks’s books, but I love the
author so I wanted to get as many as I could. I wish I could have gotten more
young adult novels, sadly the crowds were too hard to deal with that I didn’t have time or
space to select books.
On another note my brother left
the book sale happy as well. He only spent $5.50 for 7 science fiction books! As
I close this post I am looking forward to putting away my books on my bookshelf
(stay tuned for a bookshelf tour) and spending the day with the windows open
being productive around the house. Maybe I will take some time for a bike ride
later on! Another successful day in the making if I say so!
What books have you read or purchased lately?
