One of our smallest nearby library branches reliably has one of the best ongoing book sales. Pretty pleased with my haul from the 5 for $1 rack. 📚❤️

ImperfectCJ Ooh! I'll have to check out that branch! I've had good luck at Scripps Ranch, too. (Too much luck, some members of my family would say...) 5y
Christine @ImperfectCJ Hi, San Diego Litsy friend (I always feel like there should be more of us on here)! Now I‘ll have to try out Scripps Ranch, I don‘t think I‘ve ever been there. 😁 5y
ImperfectCJ @Christine It's definitely a treat to discover local Littens on here. I was so excited when I saw you'd tagged a SDPL branch! We (my kids and I, not the royal "we") have yet to get to the Clairemont branch, but we're collecting them all, so we'll make it eventually. :-) 5y

Christine @ImperfectCJ We love to check out new branches, too (city and county)! It‘s so fun discovering the unique perks of each. The tagged Clairemont one really is pretty tiny, but in addition to good for-sale books they usually have an impressive number of new release DVDs in stock. 5y
Hooked_on_books My mom lives in Carlsbad. She loves her library branch but almost never buys books (I‘m not sure what‘s wrong with her—maybe I‘m adopted? 😆). 5y
Christine @Hooked_on_books Carlsbad is so great! But I‘ve never been to that branch, either....another to add to the list! And 😆, too funny about your non-genetic book buying tendencies! 5y
ImperfectCJ @Christine We use the county system for ebooks and audiobooks (we're completely dependent upon Libby/Overdrive), but we rarely visit the county branches because I live in fear if mixing up city and county books. I like to think I'm a rebel, but really I'm a goody-two-shoes rule follower. 😆 Agreed on the fun of finding the perks/quirks of the branches. 5y
Christine @ImperfectCJ YES re: county Libby/Overdrive! Their audiobooks supply the majority of my book consumption, and I‘m so grateful for their impressive catalog. And agreed, we rarely visit or borrow from their branches (mostly because we don‘t have one nearby, relatively speaking), but whenever we do visit one I‘m always impressed by their physical collections as well. 5y

Scored a nice $5 haul from one of my neighborhood library branches, which, despite being quite small, invariably has some great books on its for-sale shelves. Found two from my #summersantagoespostal match‘s TBR, three from my own (Danticat, Euphoria, Bluebird), Unsheltered (which I loved), and an extra copy of my beloved Poisonwood to have on hand for emergency sharing needs! 😁

DeeLew Excellent haul! Love Barbara Kingsover and the Poisonwood Bible is one of my all time favorite books. 😊 5y
Christine @DeeLew Poisonwood is just so good!! I‘m planning to try the audiobook soon. I‘ve only read in print. 5y
