A local library is having a used book sale - Over the past couple days, I've found 30-some books, for around $30. I begin to understand how some people's to-read stacks can get so huge that they have no hope of ever reaching the bottom. (About the notion that buying used books deprives authors of income: Firstly, if I enjoy a book, I'll probably buy more of the author's work in the future, and recommend it to others. Secondly, it's a crime to let a good book go to waste. And thirdly, have you seen the selection available in the average mall bookstore lately?)
