Back From Book Shopping!

Alice told me yesterday that she bought 25 books!

i was very thrilled and couldn't wait to go for the MPH warehouse sales today.. it's the last day today so i think there aren't many books left for me to choose.

here's what i bought.

The Life of Mahatma Gandhi - Louis Fischer

The Diary Of A Young Girl -Anne Frank

Marley And Me - John Grogan

'Tis - Frank McCourt

How Starbucks Saved My Life - Michael Gill

The Secret Of Scent - Luca Turin

If You Could See Me Now - Cecila Ahern

To Kill A Mocking Bird - Harper Lee

Specials -Scott Westerfeld

Extra -Scott Westerfeld

Stories We Could Tell - Tony Parsons

Man And Wife - Tony Parsons

My Favourite Wife - Tony Parson

Breaking Dawn & New Moon - Stephanie Meyer.

I wanted to get Stephanie Meyer's "Eclipse" and "Twilight" but the guy told me they had promotions days before and sold off everything.. too bad.

i also wanted to get the first 2 books by Scott Westerfeld - "Ugly" and "Pretty".

and i only noticed that i bought a wrong book while taking the book's photos just now!

initially, i wanted to get "Teacher Man" by Frank McCourt.. i took the book and before i went to the cashier, i saw that the book is ot in a very good condition. so i went to the shelve and take a better one.. because the color of the book is almost the same, so i guess i took wrong one.. T_T i took 'Tis instead of Teacher Man!! which i already had in my collection..

i'm thinking about selling it off or giving it away.

:)

couldn't find "The Memory Keeper's Daughter" by Kim Edwards though... i wanted to get more books.. but couldn't find what i wanted so i ended up with only 15 books. the damage? RM308.00. which i think is kind of worth it la.. i think i saved at least a hundred bucks there. maybe more.

hope they have another sale soon!
