Because I Don't Have Enough Books, Right?
Posted by maggie

So I'm standing in line at the Neenah Public Library. A dozen people are standing in front of me (and more are sitting), as we prepare to wait for 20 more minutes to pay $3 to take the first crack at the annual book sale here. A couple years ago I bought more than 100 Nick Carter dime novels for less than 75 cents each here (of which 8 were ones J. Randolph Cox didn't have -- till I sent them to him), so you never know what you'll find. Happy people are chatting with each other about favorite authors, building bookshelves, and what's in public domain. Nice.
