I'm Way Too Excited About My Books!!

TODAY, I went to my favourite used book store. It was fantastic. They had a sale on.
It was bliss.
This store is called The Book Farm, and they have beautiful books. Outside, there's this building called The Book Barn, where everything is 50p. The sale was that, but twice as big. There were hundreds and hundreds of  alluring books. Oh so fantastic!
I went, of course planning to buy 4 or 5 books... which didn't happen. I left the premises with 13 charming books, and I want to show them to you! 




 This gorgeous copy of Macbeth was printed in 1896. There are notes on most of the pages, from the original owner, in beautiful cursive that speaks of a time more than a few decades ago.

This adorable French school book was printed in 1915. 

 This copy of Huckleberry Finn once belonged to Cowplain County Secondary Boys' School.

 This copy of The Works of Tennyson (who happens to be my favourite poet) was printed in 1884, and has pressed flowers in it, from who knows how long ago.

 This fantastic copy of Shakespeare's Commentaries was printed in 1877. Oh my, it is too beautiful for words.

 Guy Mannering, by Sir Walter Scott, and
  The Prisoner of Zenda, by Anthony Hope.

 This adorable "Sewing in Colour", printed in 1969.

 

The Apocrypha, with an inscription in the front from 1941.

 And finally, A Century of Sea Stories, and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea,
which was printed in 1972. 

Overall, I am very happy with today's finds. Very. 

Sometime soon I would like to post about my favourite books on my shelves, but we'll see about that another day.

Have you found any exciting books recently? I would love to hear about them!
