New old books (or old new books?)

March 26, 2007

Went into the used bookstore today because, you know, it was there. Came out with five paperbacks, which is not bad at all. I think I exercised a fair bit of self-control, actually. Here’s what I found today:

  1. Whitney Otto’s How To Make An American Quilt
  2. Jodi Picoult’s The Pact
  3. Madame Bovary, by Gustave Flaubert, cuz I’ve been meaning to read this for a long time
  4. Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, which ::gasp:: I’ve never read (oh, the shame)
  5. Sarah Dessen’s Keeping the Moon, which I’ve read but want to read again one day

Plus I bought Miriam Toews’ The Summer of my Amazing Luck in the grocery store yesterday (our only option for new books here in town). So I’m a happy girl. :-)
