#BooksForTrade/ #Free To Good Home
I was going through a friend’s bookcases for her the other day and she only wanted to keep certain books. I picked out what I wanted but the rest of the stuff is up for grabs. Local pickup Cherry Hill, NJ or West Windsor, NJ only. Cannot ship unless we trade. If adult novels below the line are not claimed soon they will be donated to a local library or put up for sale on eBay in groups. For books I’m looking for check out my Goodreads or you can just inquire as I haven’t recently updated the GR list. Please note all books are in excellent condition if not new and are hard cover unless noted with [pb]. I also have a $25 Barnes & Noble gift card, $12 Dominos gc, and $15 Radio Shack gc that I can trade.

Today’s my favorite holiday!!!!
Today is my favorite holiday!!! It’s National Book Lovers Day!!
I couldn’t allow the holiday to pass without celebrating. OK, honestly, I didn’t even know today was National Book Lovers Day until I searched for something on Twitter this evening and saw the hashtag trending. That’s right, when I picked up my latest book today I had no idea I was celebrating a very special day.
You’re probably thinking I went into my favorite bookstore or library but guess what, I didn’t! That’s right. I never set foot into a bookstore today, not did I buy the book online. No, nobody bought me the book. I bought it myself- from my favorite hidden gem– the dollar store! Yep, today’s addition to my TBR came from the book section of my local dollar store!
*Seeker* by Arwen Elys Dayton is one of my largest finds at 432 pages and about a foot in length and 6 inches in width and it was released to the masses just last year! It is also the first in a series. The sequel *Traveler* was released in Spring 2016. It just goes to show you that you never know what books you’ll find hidden amongst the masses and messes.
In my personal opinion, the smaller the dollar store the better the selection of books they have. And often times they have multiple copies of one book!
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??
Go find out for yourself! There’s no guarantee you’ll always find a great read or one in perfect condition, but it’s a little known secret that you can find some wonderful books right around the corner where you least expect them to be!
