Book Buying Habits Have Slowed Down For Me

[caecus_parvulus]

I went to a new bookstore downtown to see if they had any good spooky reads. Honestly, they don't hold a candle to the old one that closed before hurricane Micheal. That one had tons of all kinds of books. The same people had owned it for years before selling to a different guy about three years before it closed. The prices from the first owners

It's so upsetting when places start overcharging for used things! I stopped buying clothes at thrift stores because they were more than what I could find on sale at regular stores. (Now I just don't buy clothes at all anymore, lol)

I used to read so many christian books like that when I was a kid because I could read anything that said christian without needing permission first so I ended up reading a lot of really dumb adult romantic books when I was too young for them cause I just wanted to read constantly. Sometimes they can have some really good stories though so I'm glad it wasn't too terrible at least and had some good points.
I really hate that about so many of those types of writers too! It's really not clever at all to just randomly throw something in at the end that has no lead up, or character!

I don't thrift at all any more. When I want cheap books, I go to the store in the library, which has $1 hardbacks and $.50 paperbacks. Goodwill wants $10 for books around here.

I pretty much lived in my school's library until high school. I wish I had a list of all the books I read then, because I remember liking so many. I try to keep up with a reading journal these days.
