Sep. 10th, 2007 01:32 pmI forgot to write that on Saturday Jo and I were out shopping and what was a trip just for the newest Buffy comic (*yay* the Faith story arc has started!) turned into a lot more random shopping. We stopped into Bacca so Jo could find a book for her trip to NYC and while she didn't find anything we were told that Gregory Maguire had a new book out 'What The Dickins' which just came out this week! Clearly I bought it. Totally shouldn't have but I'm already throughly engrossed in it and have no regrets.
Then the girl who works at Bacca also let us know there was a sci-fi and fantasy flea market going on at the TO Reference Library that afternoon. So we wandered in that direction and I fully thought I'd find nothing since we were hitting it at the end of the day. Wrong. I got a flying monkey little statue, 2 of Tanya Huff's Blood books, a copy of 'A Wind in the Door' which matches my first ever copy of 'A Wrinkle in Time', the John Saul serial novel series (Blackstone Chronicals I believe it's called) a BtVS bookmark from when they did one of those "READ" campaigns for the library AND right next to that was an Inkworks autographed Anthony Stewart Head trading card and I bought that... for a dollar! AWESOME. Also I learned that the Ref. library has a second hand booksale room. Dangerous for me and also awesome. AND we went to the 100 years of Mirvish display! So much random fun at the library.
