Book Sale haul

I worked set up three days last week, cashiered on Saturday, and worked cleanup today and am oh, so very tired, but it was worth it.
Here's my haul for Spring 2006.

Bangkok 8 by John Burdett (tradepaper)
Patchwork Planet by Anne Tyler (tradepaper)
The Dress Lodger by Sheri Holman (hardback with dj)
Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain (tradepaper)
Bel Canto by Ann Patchett (tradepaper for a friend)

Let me try this again.

It was a great sale. There were huge amounts of things to choose from and I had to exercise at least a little restraint. Yes, that list is *after* using restraint. It could have been much, much worse. Of course, Greg would have hurt me if I'd brought home even more. lol
