Love your blog. Are you selling this book?
ReplyDeleteI just sorted it yesterday, so it's not on any of our websites yet. As with all our books, it's for sale.
ReplyDeleteBased on the condition, I'd say 5 or 6 bucks.
Hahaha - that is great.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet he was happy his parents didn't name him Seymour.
ReplyDeleteNeeded a laugh this morning! :)
ReplyDeleteCan't remember how I stumbled on your blog but it's an absolutely fabulous concept. Makes me think about all the things I use for bookmarks around here.
But I'm totally jealous you get to work in a used book store. Well...ok...that you can even GO to a used book store.
I'm living in Korea at the moment & not a single English book store in sight - new, used or otherwise. And I desperately miss the smell of old books, the smell of Barnes & Noble and the peaceful quiet of wandering the store.
Keep up the great work!
Much love from an overseas Army wife,
Jennifer
