I couldn't resist. I told myself that I would stop buying books...just until I've gotten through about half of my TBR pile. v___v Fail, Chey. You. Fail. I went into a different Goodwill (the one closer to my house) expecting to find no more than 3 books like last time. Boy was I wrong. About 5 minutes and a stack of books killing my arms later, there was an announcement that they were closing for the night so I made my way to the cashier. Half of these were brand new. I'm still so excited. Guess how many I got? Come on, just guess.
Yeah...13. I hate buying books at an uneven number but if I kept adding more I was afraid I'd never be able to stop. Now I kind of regret putting one of them back (It was Beautiful by Amy Reed, if you were wondering) but I hadn't seen any reviews on it and it wasn't on my list like the others. Sooo...yeah. But maybe it'll be there when I go back. *crosses fingers* Okay, come on already- tell us the books you got! Okay, okay, hold your horses. >___> ...What? Oh like you don't talk to yourself...
Let's get this show on the road.
-The Boyfriend List by E. Lockhart
-The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks

I don't currently own (nor have I read) Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr or A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray, but until I do, I'll have to put Rebel Angels and Ink Exchange at the end of my TBR pile.
Oh! Before I forget, I have a review coming this week for Haven by Kristi Cook. Woohoo, first review!
OMG! Your goodwill had the entire Darkest Powers trilogy!?!?! I am sooo jealous! I stalk the goodwill close to me and they don't really have much YA. Did you do a happy dance in the store? I so would have done one for Kelley Armstrong books :). Lucky girl, you got a great stash.

Jen, it seems that this Goodwill had an entire YA section. I was definitely in heaven. I'm sure that now I'll be going back frequently. haha. All of the Darkest Powers books are new, as well. I'm still excited! Thanks for following. ^_^
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got a great stash of books there! It's my birthday next month so I'm trying to hold off buying books at the moment... TRYING!
