Especially if we sit on the floor start reading the books there and pull out some Fireball.Lawd, could you imagine the look on the owner's face when we come barging into the store, yelling 'Where's your Stephen King books???

Nice books! I've been looking for a copy of Deliverence for some time but have only been able to find bookclub editions. Have you ever read Travels? It's an interesting piece of non-fiction.Latest thrifty acquisitions...

Travels is one of the few non-John Lange Crichton books that I havn't read. I've heard many people talk about it over the years. Glad I finally found a copy.
Very excited to have found that edition of Deliverance. A most excellent story.
I bought (another) BCE of Joe Hill's Heart-Shaped Box (VG condition). Errr...Ummm...I (kinda) promise to quit buying every copy of this book I can get my grubby hands on! 
Bought a (1st edition) copy of the illustrated Cycle of the Werewolf. Not a true first edition, but it's a neat book and in good condition! 
Yesterday I went to the used book place I was told about. The 1000's of books turned out to be about 200 and most of them
were children's books. Did get two books by Bentley Little called 'The Town' and 'The House'. Brand new hardcovers;
$1.99 each. On the front they both have the quote 'A Master of the macabre - Stephen King'. They also had postcards and I found
8 beautiful ones of Alaska in mint condition for 7cents each. The bookstore was a disappointment but I had a chance to see
West Kelowna which was a first for me. Took 6 buses to get there and back but it was worth it.
