Well, so, uhmmm, yeah, here’s another Book haul. My only excuse this time for this book haul is that these books are so cheap. For a deal that will only cost me like a dollar to get 10 books, no bookworm will definitely pass that one up. Though I am not a fan of mass market paperbacks, majority of what they are selling are classics which I am really forcing myself to read more this year and also the price of each book when bought brand new will cost me around $4-$7 apiece. So it’s a definite win-win situation for me.
The books are not in the best condition but like what I said in my last book haul, there’s an added thrill when you buy your books second hand. You don’t know what will you expect to see and read from the pages and the knick knacks that sometimes comes with the books.
So without further ado, let’s dive into the books that I got.
