February Goodwill Tiny Book Haul |Thrifting for Books

I've always been a thrifter, I love going to Goodwill for clothes, décor, and of course books. Lately I've been seeing some pretty good books at Goodwill and Sunday I picked up three books for my collection.

I got A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaleed Hosseini, That Summer by Sarah Dessen, and Keeping the Moon by Sarah Dessen. All three books are in great to like new condition so I couldn't pass them up.

Even better the purple tag was half off, so I got all three books for $1.49! Such a great deal.

I have to admit Goodwill is one of my favorite places to get books, most of the time they're super cheap and in pretty nice condition. I've never read A Thousand Splendid Suns but I did read the Kite Runner and liked it so I wanted to read this book. I'm also a huge Sarah Dessen fan so I couldn't pass up on these books to add to my ever growing collection. I actually think all my Sarah Dessen books have been purchased from Goodwill.

Do you thrift shop for books? If so what is your best book find?

So far my favorite find was a huge bundle of Jane Austen books.

Huge Decemeber Thrift / Christmas Gift Book Haul

I'll start off this post by saying this haul is insanely huge, for two reasons.

Reason number 1 ; I recently started recollecting books, so I feel the need to get a lot.

Reason number 2 ; these books were all SO cheap. Most of them were 10 cents each and I think the most I spent on any of the books was $2 for a book set and maybe $1 each for a few.

Every book I purchased myself was second hand, from Habitat for Humanity, Goodwill, or online. I also got a few books for Christmas as well, so let's get started.

I'll start with Christmas, I got a total of 15 books for Christmas. Including quite a few books by Ellen Hopkins, who I absolutely love, my boyfriend got a bundle of books of hers for $22, which is quite a steal! He also got me an autographed copy of If I Stay by Gayle Forman from Book Outlet which is also where he got the other (minus The Glass Castle) books. 

Next up are the books I got from Habitat for Humanity, I got a lot because they were all 10 cents each with the exception of the Vampire Academy 4 book set, which was $2, still an amazing deal. Most of these are books I just picked up because they sounded familiar or because they seemed interesting, so we'll see how that goes.

Now we're on to the Goodwill books, the most I paid per book was $1, the rest were 50 cents each because of Goodwill's end of the year 50% off sale and I'm definitely not complaining. I was pretty excited to find the Outlanders first 3 books but not so much now because I'm afraid to start such a long series, but in time I will read them. I was also insanely excited to find the Jane Austen books, I want to find the person that donated and thank them.

Books I forgot to mention that I got in December was Me Before You which I purchased online and After You which I got from Goodwill but forgot to post it in the photo because I am currently reading it.

And the last two books that I got this month were an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) and a book from a publisher to read for reviews. I've already posted a review on the ARC of Romeo and What's Her Name and I'll be reading The Convenient Escape.

 Here is a photo of all the new books I got in December, there is a total of 92 books!

My favorite book out of this haul would have to be ;

Thanks for reading, did you receive any books for Christmas? If so which ones? If there's too many to post, just comment which was your favorite?
