Hi folks!
Since my college days, I've been frequenting BOOKSALE to detox myself. Seeing their stacks of books- aaah, it just relaxes me. Whenever I go to one of their branches, I don't really have the intention to buy anything, but sometimes I walk out with one book or two. You just never know when you'll find a treasure there! 😍
BOOKSALE is one of the big bookstores here in the Philippines. They house mostly used books, thus they offer them at very low prices. So you see? It's quite impossible to walk out of the store without buying. 😁
For this post, I want to share with you folks the books I bought in BOOKSALE over the years, and two recent purchases from the store!
Some visits, I don't find books to my liking. But it's always a 'gasping' moment whenever I find a book I like and in good condition! Here are the books I bought:
The Passage by Justin Cronin- Read. I'll review this book soon.
Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer- Read and reviewed (here).
