Tomorrow (Saturday, May 7th) is the annual Mother's Day Weekend Whyte Ridge Garage Sale and I am selling most of my books! Due to my eventual move to BC and because I use an e-reader now, I have hundreds of books that need a new home. They are all in excellent condition, practically new (many due to the fact that I worked at Indigo for a long time and had a penchant for immediately spending my paychecks on books which I later neglected to read, so I mean it when I say "excellent"--no bends, no wear at all). Now, unfortunately, I have little time to read them. So, please take a look at the list below and if you'd like to purchase any of the books listed and are unable to come to the garage sale, message me on Facebook and I'll set them aside for you. You can also stop by the garage sale which goes from 8 am into the late afternoon, message me for my address or just stop by the area. I will be updating this list as they sell! (List updated!)
Note: While I have a specific textbook section at the very end, a lot of the texts for my psychology and English courses are scattered in the psych and various fiction sections, respectively (I have cross-listed only a few, but not all), so be sure to look at the entire list. The textbooks are also in new condition, unless otherwise stated.
