hi my name is lindsay
today my dad and i were in diamond bar trying to find a shoe repair place, and in the same shopping area we found a small used book store. we were pretty excited about it initially because there was this amazing deal, where you basically just fill up a pretty large bag as much as you can with these books that were out in the front of the store and all of it’s $1.
while my dad was hunting around there, i went inside the store and found another deal- basically, all paperback books with red tags were $0.25. Out of the books in the picture only i think like five of them were red tags. the other two were actually only a little over a dollar ionno the whole thing was $5 so i don’t really give a shit because i got friggin seven books today.
it was really exciting being in a bookstore where i could actually like afford to buy stuff. i really loved borders and i like barnes and noble but like i pretty much never buy books at those bookstores because they’re just too expensive (amazon.com is a much cheaper alternative). it’s kind of exhilarating, though, actually physically hunting down books in a store where you’re not sure whether they’d have a certain book or not and there’s no search engine to check for you.
most of these books are actually really gently used and they’re very clean. but I’m super excited about A Streetcar Named Desire because I’ve wanted that play for basically forever, and whoever owned the book before me was apparently very enthusiastic about it. There’s a whole bunch of highlighted passages and post-its with annotations.
you know when you ask your sister to get you some gummy candy but you really mean SOUR gummy candy so when she comes home with your gummy bears you are very disappointed and forget them in the sun and then they congeal into one single 990 calorie gummy rectangle and you spend 10 minutes cutting it out of the bag so you can take a picture for the internet
