Huckleberries Online

HBO Blogosphere — 2.8.10

I love used books. I love to go to used book stores wherever I visit. I love St. Vinnies book section in CdA. I love to dig deep at the bottom of a shelf and find some title nobody else knew was there. I especially love used book sales at the library. Yesterday a used book sale was held at the public library in Colville. Now since this was my second visit I knew the routine a bit better. Get a coffee drink and get there early. I was about twenty minutes early and there was already a line winding down the sidewalk. The nice thing about this book sale is they only let so many people in at a time. No trampling for that gently used softback copy of "Twilight"/Gathering Around the Table. More here.

Question: Where do you look for used books? And/or: Am I the only male who'll admit that he's read all four books in the "Twilight" series?
