#bookhaul mostly from Munro‘s, a couple from Russell Books as well. Almost all for other people this time, so that‘s good, right?

Ruthiella Fantastic! 😄 44m

Texreader Love the chickens!! 38m

Librarybelle Good library haul but oh no about the next Nancy Drew! 11m

DebinHawaii @Librarybelle I just have to get it transferred from another branch & that takes longer. It‘s just weird that they don‘t have all of them in a branch but I guess they go missing & they don‘t replace them or something. 🤷🏻‍♀️ now

Due to lack of internet, I didn't get a chance to post this yesterday. #Bookhaul from a new-to-me used bookstore. My little picked up a decent stack as well. 📚

Sace That edition of Alice in Wonderland looks delightful! 1h

Broadhurst's Booksellers | Southport, Lancashire, United Kingdom (Bookstore)

#BookHaul
Although my beloved Broadhurst's Booksellers is no more, browsing in another shop I found that they have an entry in this 1982 Guide to the Secondhand and Antiquarian bookshops of Great Britain, so I had to buy it. When I come to read it, I will undoubtedly be checking which are still open, and will be making appropriate entries on Library Thing. ⬇️

Bookwomble Kate O'Brien's English Diaries and Journals is a slim essay on the subject, a somewhat tanned cover, but some nice plates inside.
Lastly, an "unexpurgated" translation of The Decameron, privately published by the Navarre Society, with some similarly unexpurgated illustrations, ??️? No publishing date, but a previous owner, "Bultitude", has inscribed it "22nd January, 1943". ⬇️ 1d

Bookwomble At that date, its 42/- cover price would now be worth about £80, so the £6 I paid send a bargain, despite it showing signs of its age. 1d

kspenmoll Some amazing finds!!! 1d

LeahBergen What a glorious photo! 1d

bibliothecarivs Is this photo from the shop or from your home later? 1d

Bookwomble @bibliothecarivs I wish I needed a bookcase ladder! 🤔 Actually, I do, but haven't the space for one, so I perch precariously on a stool for my top shelves! I took the picture in the tagged bookshop before heading for the till 😊

Parkinson's Books, Southport

Bookwomble @kspenmoll Yes, I was pleased with this little group. I've been meaning to get a copy of the Decameron for 40-odd years, so not before time 😊 11h

Bookwomble @LeahBergen It's atmospheric ? The new proprietor who took over when Mr Parkinson died a couple of years ago is starting to get a bit of his own stamp on the place, which is nice. Unfortunately, he does have a tendency to play his "background" music in the foreground, which can be rather unnerving when you're trying to quietly browse ?? 11h

LeahBergen Eek! I feel your pain. 😬 8h

Greek Myths: A Wonder Book for Girls & Boys | Nathaniel Hawthorne

These little people, quite recovered from their fatigue, had set about gathering checkerberries, and now came clambering to meet their playfellows.
Thus reunited, the whole party went down through Luther Butler‘s orchard, and made the best of their way home to Tanglewood.
