Attention Buffalo book lovers!
One of my favorite local events, the annual AAUW book sale, is next week (although it doesn't say that on the web site, for some reason). Mark your calendars now! I highly recommend going on the last day, when paperbacks are crazy cheap. The first year I went I'm pretty sure they were 10 for a dollar as closing time approached on Sunday.
Of course, selection varies from year to year. I nearly always get a lot of great craft and DIY books from the 50s and 60s, and there are always TONS of cookbooks. Not much science fiction and fantasy, unfortunately, and it gets picked over pretty quickly.
So clear off a couple of shelves, grab your checkbook, and go. Oh, and purchases are tax deductible. How cool is that?

Wait a minute! You're a Buffalo blogger?! I had no idea at all! Yeesh.
So how good is this sale, anyway? I thought about going, but life circumstances right now make it not that good an idea for me. Consolation is that my library's quarterly book sale should be this weekend.
