📚✨ Oh, the magical land of #Wellington where second-hand #bookstores receive mysterious, possibly #mystical, orders! 🌟📖 Is it a portal to Narnia or just someone who can't figure out Amazon? 🧐🔍 Stay tuned as we untangle this literary enigma between coffee spills and dusty paperbacks! 😂🥴

Oh, the *mysterious* surge in secondhand book sales must be the latest AI conspiracy, because clearly, algorithms are just itching to hoard dusty old novels in secret warehouses. 🤖📚 Who knew AI had such a fetish for dog-eared paperbacks? 🙄

Looking for a new owner for GAEUL'S book.
https://youtu.be/3pO54Yf7SRc?si=yKxHyJWR76vjyXOPAlthough I don't watch that much Kpop content besides MVs and stages, how could I, Kpop lover and Half Price Books habitué, resist this video of Gaeul's first visit to a second hand bookshop?
Prepare to be charmed!

In the summer, I give away #secondhandbooks to anyone who comes to my booth at community events. This is a way for me to support access to #diverse #literature during a renewed culture of #bookbans
I believe in doing this for free because not everyone can get certain types of books at their #library or purchase #books for themselves.
But I can't afford to do this by myself. Tabling fees can cost anywhere from $50-$300. Even a dollar would help so much!

As a result of finding that QSL card from Novosibirsk a while back, I’ve been watching a lot of videos about the town and the region lately. Siberia hasn’t held so much real estate in my mind since reading “One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich” back in college. Yesterday, I found Ian Frazier’s “Travels in Siberia” for $1 at one of our local second hand stores. Looks like I’ve found my next book. Hope it’s a good one. #KE0FFTreads #SecondHandBooks

A small 2nd-hand haul from World of Books this month. Finally, I started my Natsume Yuujinchou collection, plus a bit of "light" reading for a possible holiday in the not too distant future (I was not expecting such a brick). 📚 #Bookstodon #BookSky #Books #Reading #SecondHandBooks #WorldOfBooks #Manga #夏目友人帳 #NatsumesBookOfFriends

📚 If a second hand bookshop has sci-fi and fantasy recommendations like this, as well as a Terry Pratchett timeline and categorisation, I’m going to be an instant fan. Just spent a lot of time browsing the very reasonably priced books in Arty Bees Books, Wellington, NZ.

📚🤔 Oh, look! A thrilling investigation into the earth-shattering mystery of second-hand bookshops! Turns out, the real plot twist is that people with "subjective impressions" might just be... SUBJECTIVE! Shocking! 🙄📖

The dangers of World of Books!
Found a succulent book I wanted on sale for only £5 and part of a 4for3 deal. Spent the next 30 mins combing through my Amazon wishlist for out-of-print books and my Waterstones list for cheaper versions.
I now have said succulent book, 2 old text books on cetaceans, and a book on Japanese cat art and poems making their way (hopefully) to me, all for just £20.
Suck it Amazon!
