I was so excited to learn about the Harvard Book Store warehouse sale this morning. I immediately jumped in the shower so I would be able to arrive as soon as the doors opened. I managed to score some really excellent deals including a number of new hardcover titles for only $1 and a stack of my favorite young adult novels from childhood. I can’t wait to curl up with some of these books and reminisce.

The Book Thief is an incredible book!!!
Ooh, I remember Behind the Attic Wall.
The Lovely Bones is wonderful.
Erin,
Have you read The Lovely Bones before? It’s a page turner. I read it in one sitting!
Erin, we have seriously similar tastes in books! There is but one volume in your pile that I haven’t read or owned. Good stuff!
Courtney – I have read The Lovely Bones, but it was a very long time ago when it first came out. I vividly remember staying up until 2:00 AM though just to finish it. I thought it might be a good idea to re-read it before the movie comes out this winter.
Marisa – Now I’m super curious. Which one haven’t you read?
I still have nightmares from The Dollhouse Murders! I have a three year old daughter for whom I would love to get my dollhouse down from the attic, but I just can’t deal with the thought of the creepy dollhouse dolls moving around at night…
OMG! Some of those books are making my library list for the summer!!!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m so jealous of your book escapades!!
The Bookthief is just great!
I was so bummed to miss this sale! It seemed like such a great event.
