Or do I? I’m rescuing them. Yes. That’s the term. Rescue. Not all heroes wear capes, friends.
I believe that I have a problem

Lockup Library: book haul
Hey hey book nerds! Just a wicked quick post. It’s been a while for sure, but I have a book haul!
I wasn’t gonna get the Spanish version of Twilight, but I’m glad Crystal said to get it. I’d be kicking myself if I hadn’t.
And of course, Honor Among Thieves. I read this a few years back, and it’s been on my list to buy if I found it.
Ok, time to relax. We’ve been on the road since 8 this morning. Talk to y’all soon, book nerds!
Book haul!
Hey hey book nerds! It’s been a while huh? We’ll it’s been whirlwind here, but we were in the right place at the right time!
Some guy had just dropped off two bags of Stephen King books. I used one of the bags he carried them in with to stuff it full. Usually the second hand store does a bag sale for a dollar with books. Just a grocery bag. So the lady at the counter said $2. I told her I’ll give $3, so I wouldn’t feel like I was cheating them out of money.
She thanked me. I thanked her.
What a great haul!
Book haul, but not for me
So yesterday, while I was in CapitalCity, one of the main goals was to find this specific book for my dad for Father’s Day.
Let me preface this by saying that my dad isn’t a reader. I believe he may be on the spectrum, and has a heathy dose of dyslexia. It’s very very hard for him to do any reading. When he was studying for all of his mechanics courses, he would literally memorize the entire book for the course. My mom would read all of them to him.
Anyways, I told him about this book a couple of weeks ago, and immediately was very interested in it, and was asking a lot of questions about it. So like I said getting this book was one of the main reasons to drive 2.5 hours to a city that actually had a book store.
I get to the book store and find the last copy of it. I was so happy, I think I did a little happy dance right there in the store.
I have a YouTube video for him to watch, and then he’ll be able to make his own murder wall!
I have all the faith in the world that he’ll solve this mystery!
