Another visit to a favourite used bookstore!
📚 Flight Into Danger (Hailey)
📚 Doctor Who: Shining Darkness (Michalowski)
📚 Translations (Friel)
📚 Dancing at Lughnasa (Friel)
📚 The Back of the Turtle (King)
📚 Be My Enemy (Brookmyre)
📚 Destination Disaster (Eddy, Potter, Page)
I read Translations in 2013 but wanted to revisit it. Also glad to get The Back of the Turtle because the library was taking FOREVER.

A slightly smaller #BookHaul than my previous visit to this store, but still good!
3️⃣ books off my to-read list: Horizon (MacInnes), Singing the Sadness (Hill), and A Snowball in Hell (Brookmyre)
2️⃣ scifi: Wanderers of Time (Wyndham), Conundrum (Lyons, a Doctor Who novel)
1️⃣ random pick: Sacré Blues (Grescoe), about Quebec in the early 2000s

A much-needed book spree while visiting my parents. Three Dr Who novels (Warriors‘ Gate, State of Change, Transit), two Chris Brookmyres (Not the End of the World, A Big Boy Did It and Ran Away), a collection of Vera Brittain and Winifred Holtby journalism (Testament of a Generation), and a Tomson Highway play (Dry Lips Oughta Move to Kapuskasing).

tokorowilliamwallace Oh man, I need to utilize the phrase book spree more often. 2y
LeahBergen Nice haul! 2y
rabbitprincess @tokorowilliamwallace This was a smaller spree but probably the first time I‘ve shopped for books in person in many months! @LeahBergen The Brittain/Holtby book in particular was an unusual find, so had to snap that up 😁 2y
LeahBergen Yes, my eyes immediately went to that one! 😆 2y
