Today, I withstood temptation. Mostly. Our church is having a holiday sale this weekend: baked goods, homemade jellies, jams, sweaters and scarves... I am helping to run the used book booth. This morning I went in to set up, price books and get them on display. There are hundreds of books! My family was placing bets on how many books I would buy before I even put them on a shelf. I only bought two, thank you very much! And I donated eight so...I'd say I can do some more shopping when I go to work my shift tomorrow! With hardcovers only $1 and paperbacks a mere 50 cents, how can I go wrong?!
I also donated my very favorite "book" movie - 84 Charing Cross Lane. I only donated the VHS copy because I have a DVD copy also and decided I probably didn't need to keep both. I love movies with bookstores or libraries in them. Fred Astaire finds Audrey Hepburn working in a bookstore in the movie Funny Face . And, of course, You've Got Mail. What other "book" movies are out there?
