You've heard of 'dinner and a movie'. Well, my girl friends and I went to 'dinner and Chapters' for my friend's birthday.
I probably would have spent more had I not forgotten my wallet at home (not realizing this until after dinner) and had to rely on a loan from one of my friends. Also, I bought two books I hadn't intended to buy just to compensate for the fact that Chapters was sold out of "Dust and shadow" by Lyndsay Faye. Silly me, I assumed Chapters would have copies considering it's a new-ish title. Apparently, I was wrong.
I bought:
*The Penguin Complete Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
*The Tiger's Wife by Téa Obreht
*To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
*Ready Player One by Ernest Cline
*The Boy in the Dress by David Walliams
When I got home, I ordered a hardcover copy of "Dust and shadow" because Chapters only had the trade paperback available. I wanted hardcover so I was happy to find that Better World Books had it.
Read on,
Paula
