Hubby and I went on a date to the used book store. We somehow limited ourselves to six books. 2 for him and 4 for me. #bookhaul
Exploring NOLA this weekend! This is my oldest, who‘s about as obsessed with books as I am! He‘s quick to grab the most interesting (or largest) book and plop down on the floor at any moment. Bookstores feel like home 🖤 Do any of u search out bookstores while on vacay??
Book sale coming soon in beautiful Western Massachusetts. You know you always wanted to visit 🥰
Home to Webs - America‘s Yarn Store, 5 famous colleges, Northampton, the best restaurants!
#BookSale
Now I see the next town over also has a book sale. Easthampton, Mass.
I already went to the library book sale yesterday but my daughter wanted to go today. So, of course, I went again. 😂
Thankfully my husband is at IKEA buying me new shelves!!! 🤣🤣
I'm not sure where I saw this but I've decided to give it a go. A subscription box where you get 2 used books for 9.99 or 4 for 14.99 . You can also cancel at anytime. I did the 2 books to test it out. They're based here in NC, which I thought was cool.
If you'd like to try it with me here's a referral link. Hopefully I'll get something that I love and normally wouldn't have picked up. https://www.usedbooksmonthly.com/refer/Victo-VSQJMYSK
There is a new used bookstore/cafe in my city and it‘s adorable. This photo is from their Facebook page, but they opened yesterday and the amount of people that were in there was great. So if anyone is in the Worcester, MA area it‘s called Bedlam Book Cafe.
I had the day all to myself so I hit up some used book shops. #BookAttic in Madison which has mostly old and sometimes rare books. Then #McKays which is truly overwhelming! It was a good, very bookish day!

This is my used bookstore haul from Friday. Just in time for my re-read of #thedarktower series. Can‘t wait to read The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell, The Savage Detectives by Roberto Bolano and Dark Matter by Blake Crouch too!

Yay so I caved and went the the thrift store and bought all these beauties for under $10! #bookhaul #tbr #usedbooks
Well I did it! I went the the Heaven‘s Treasure Thrift and got too many books! The hubby is going to be upset. My pile is on the top and the kids on the bottom all for under $10. #bookhaul #usedbooks#tbrlistgrows
Took a short ride into Doylestown to visit the great used book store, Central Books. Today‘s book hauls for the family was over $75 and not one of these books was over $6. Piles from smallest to largest: Hubby‘s, kids‘, and mine! Got two on my #GARBingo list! #bookhaul #usedbooks #doylestownpa #centralbooks #tbr
Went by the used book store and had lots of fun and only bought one book and it is for a swap ❤️ #funfriday
Attention Calgary/Alberta Littens! My favourite annual event is coming up. CBC Calgary Reads Big Book Sale. Over three days they sell thousands of used books to fundraise for children's literacy programs. Volunteer/donate/buy/support. 📚💕

In my hometown, Fredericksburg, Virginia, for a few days and stopped in at the used bookshop, Riverby Books. Lots of nooks for extending browsing.
I headed over to Ms. B‘s, the shop that‘s closing in a couple of weeks. It was packed with people. It was sad to see the shelves emptying, but the owner seemed happy. I wish her well. Of course I got some books.
I AM SO SAD. I just heard that our awesome little independent used book shop is closing later this month. 😭😭😭

Nothing that I love more than a used book with a great story to tell! What do you guys prefer? Used or new?
We found a used bookstore a block away from where my friend is staying.... I‘m struggling to not buy more books y‘all!
1. Either my armchair or bed
2. Lots of bookmarks but a scrap will do
3. I stop at the next paragraph
4. Both. I like to read during dinner (I live alone) or over a glass of wine
5. Silence
6. Several. A bedtime book, bookstand book, & sometimes a commute book/research book
7. Everywhere
8. Both depending on mood & solitude
9. No
10. Spinebreaker!
11. Occasionally. I make more notes in ebooks
12. @batsy @inwhichHeikereadsharder #readinghabits
I love my Kindle, but I can't help but get giddy when I walk into Chamblins Bookmine.
So I ordered a sort of hard to find book for my #SecretSantaGoesPostal it finally arrived today and I'm a little disappointed with the level of wear and tear. It's still very much a readable copy, but I just wish it was a nicer copy. What do you guys think about a used book? I bought her 2 new books as well as other stuff too.
Last day in New Orleans. Visited the used bookstore in this picture and the lovely Faulkner house books. #nola #usedbooks
If anyone is in the Santa Barbara, California area, you must check out this really cool humongous used book sale. Runs today thru Sept. 24th. Thousands of categories and great prices. I'm heading up there soon with a very large tote bag! 😍💪🏻📚📚

After leaving the bookbug, we turned down a random street and discovered this place and it was awesome! We're already planning to go back sometime with more money and time...
I just pulled in to Owego for a French macaron class and saw this. Score!
I can't believe we've been here nearly 14 years, and just discovered this beauty of a used book store. Rooms full of books, homey atmosphere, even an outdoor reading garden. #usedbooklove
Tried a new used book store- Reader's Corner in Raleigh, NC ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Book Exchange used bookstore in Amsterdam. Unfortunately they'd already closed. 😔
There is a chain of used bookstores in NC called Edward McKay's, and they're my #cheapthrills! While I was in grad school, I spent more money than I should have at the Greensboro and Winston-Salem locations. Any time I'm close to an Ed McKay's I have to stop in and see what they have! #lyricalapril
The St Clair Shores PL had their used books for sale! Didn't find anything tempting to bring home. It's great the books aren't discarded, but allowed to live a peaceful retirement, lol. #SCSPL
This is a new used book store in Lawrenceville, Georgia called Books by the Pound. I think I'm going to be in trouble! 😊😊😊😊😊 📚📚📚📚📚
I don't mind a used book, but an abused book drives me crazy. I was so glad when libraries started using ebooks. Mistreated library books are the worst. Who are those people? #BookishPetPeeves #MarchIntoReading
Where does everyone buy their used books online? I currently live in Spain and don't have access to normal book stores. Please help 😁😩📚📖
My husband and I have "date days" on Fridays. Today we decided to walk around our city's downtown. I was super excited to go to a used bookstore I had seen. Books and teas. Bummed to get there and find it permanently closed. ? I felt so bad for not going sooner. But the owner had set this display out front offering free books. They were a pretty random, obscure assortment, but I found a few to "adopt".

Showing some love for our local independent used book shop. Stopped by this morning in hopes for a copy of Maus. Success! #getindie
The Book Barn is having their annual sale. 30% off each already low prices book.
#latestbookishbuys Found these yesterday. 7 books for $15! Picked up a lot of them because of seeing posts here on Litsy 😜#blameitonlitsy #photoadaynov16 #latepost
When I graduated college and got my first teaching job I moved into an apartment kitty-corner from this used book shop - Pageturners. It closed many years ago, and reopened as a bar. I had still been mourning the book shop being gone, but my husband and I finally went last night. It was great! Cozy, chill, and kept the character. I guess if you're going to replace a bookstore, a great bar is a good replacement. And they kept the name!
Good morning, Littens! I am at a Dollar Book Exchange. It will be fun going through these boxes! Everything is a dollar on the bookcases. Everything else is what you can fit in a bag for $10!
Love this.
This is the used bookstore of my teenage years. Everything looks the same. It has since transferred owners, and the new(ish) owner has priced the used books as new. I wouldn't mind this except the books have torn pages, creased spines, and yellowed pages. Bummer. #usedbooks #indiebookstore
