    Wow that was a huge library sale. Number the Stars is a beautiful story based on real life events. I actually read it in one sitting which is rare for me. I am not a quick reader.

    • @BookishRealm
      @BookishRealm  Před 2 lety

      Oooo I’m even more excited to pick it up now!

      The library spends the money for me 🤭 Especially when they bring in a new release hardcover, because those push the 30 to 35 dollar mark in Canadian bookstores.
      This has been a library appreciation comment ☺️

    • @tj5087

    • @fortunamajor7239
      @fortunamajor7239 Před 2 lety +1

      the outsiders is one of my fav books of all time. probably the best assigned reading i ever had -- we started the book on a Friday and were meant to read it as a class over the next few weeks, but i couldn't put it down! finished it that weekend and reread it several times over the course of the class unit.
      i read the rest of s.e. hinton's stuff as an adult and it's all just as good

    Your library book sale is so much nicer than my library system. The ones I’ve been to, you’re sifting through cardboard boxes and they’re not organized as well

    I have never seen so many black romances before. Or that many books with black main characters. I’m not by any means black, but I am here for the representation! Also my library has a book sale every day and everything is for 25 cents. May just end up walking out with 30 and not even spend like $20

    It's my first time watching a Library Book Sale shopping vlog.
    We don't have these in the Philippines, because accessible libraries are mostly in schools hehe.
    I remember those Disney children's books. The spines are like their trademarks.
    I own a copy of King Of The Wind. Might consider rereading it. 😄
    I read The Secret. I don't remember much about the story anymore since I've read it years ago, but I believe I enjoyed it!

    It's also a bit weird because when my local ibrary does a sale, it's three to five shelves and then only for one certain topic. Never saw this many books sold in a library :')
    Since you mentioned the author - I actually got City of Heavenly Fire during the last sale earlier this year. I was on the fence about completing my TMI / shadowhunter collection but for this price and a hardcover I didn't hesitate :D

    It's been a while since I went to a library sale. Last time, I got All Those Explosions Were Someone Else's Fault by James Alan Gardner, a novel about university students-turned-superheroes fighting billionaire vampires in Waterloo, Ontario. Lots of fun, esp. if you know the setting.
    A series about Newberry Award winners sounds interesting. I'm sure I read a few as a kid, but the only one that made any lasting impression was Island of The Blue Dolphin by Scott O'Dell.
    As an adult, I read The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner and really enjoyed it. It's very funny, not particularly tragic, so probably different from most Newberry winners. I don't recommend the audiobook, for a couple of reasons. Interestingly, the sequels are usually shelved as YA or adult fantasy, not children's books. Their summaries give away the big twist of the first book though, and it's definitely a series where going in blind is best.
