I've read a few of the titles in this stack (Master & Margarita, Extremely Loud, The Hours, Jane Eyre), but the remaining titles are all ones that are on my TBR list in some format or another (either I own them or want to own them!). It always feels so good when one scores such wonderful finds from a used bookstore! Love this loot!

(But seriously, I look back at former book stack pics, and not a whole lot of them have been read...Perhaps when I buy a new stack I should take any unread books from an old stack to Half Price books. ) I could also blame Magers and Quinn for having such a smashing inventory, many of which were lovely used copies, and the Chinook book for having a 20% coupon.

Those are some fine illustrations with “Jane Eyre.”
