r/bookhaul

My wife has been helping her parents downsize and mentioned there were some sci fi paperbacks. This is what she brought home for me. I’m excited about the selection!

Cost 50p for all these and I'd say it was worth it - beyond happy to find a copy of IT that wasn't the movie tie in cover. I love this book and have read it numerous times but somewhere in a recent move my hardback got lost so been looking for a replacement since, chuffed to find it today alongside these other books which I'm also excited to dive into 😊

I’m not sure who the first note is from, in terms she is to her, but the blue writing was written by her sister in law in. In 1969 this was gifted to her, which would’ve put her in Foster City, Ca, at the time. She had previously lived in south San Francisco. The setting of this book is San Francisco, 100 years previously to this book being written (roughly).

I wonder about her when I read this book. If she was laying in her bed reading this, in foster city. Thinking about the changes San Francisco has gone through.

I don’t know if this book is one of my favorites because of the nostalgia, but it is such a fun read.

Not exactly a book haul, but kinda. I inherited this when I was 16 and don’t think I rediscovered it until I was 18 or 19. It felt like the holy grail for me when I dug it out of a box years later.

Show me your things left behind in second hand books, if you have them. Like the book mark I found in this book or writing of any kind, maybe?

Some titles I've been hunting for, some I was shocked to find so cheap, and some on a whim. Overall a pretty damn good day.

featuring The City of Brass that is not a library book but instead I got secondhand for $5 buckaroos Canadian. can't wait to dive into these three!

Local bookstore had a 20% off sale going today so I went in with a plan to buy the next two in the red rising series. Then I found a used copy of The Book of Azrael for a good discounted price and figured I couldn't pass it up. Then, I stopped in to another local used bookstore on the way back to my car and found the two Brandon Sanderson books and just had to get them too! I just recently finished the Mistborn trilogy so I was so excited to find these for a good price!

Ive been on a mass market paperback collecting kick recently. There's something about a used (lowkey busted) mass market that just hits for me. Also grabbed the 2 regular books just because lol. Anyways justice for mass market paperbacks! They dont deserve the hate they get and I hope someday they go back into production. <3

Gifts for my bday. We'll see if this post gets removed as well.

Plus extras with Musashi and Yugioh :-)))

I am hoping to find a couple of treasures in all of this

Total for just over £5. In a charity shop in my local town. Never seem to find any books that I like (sci - fi / fantasy) so I’m happy with this👌

Friend gave me a gift card for my birthday, so naturally I had to spend 5x the amount of that gift card at the new bookstore that just opened a few towns over. Can you spot the only non-horror book?

also had to buy this sweet bottle bag (which i will use as a regular tote ) as i like medua and mythology .

I keep circling back to Jennifer hiller book recommendations too , but I feel like she gets mixed reviews and ive been only buying books i am sure i will want to add to my library permanently
