I Bought Books 😱 | My First Book Haul 📚 

The flower is a bird of paradise….because it looks like a bird. It’s a tropical flower.

"Fingerspeak" reminded me of a book I read earlier in the year called Winter's Myths by Gage Greenwood which follows a man and his daughters as they try to survive in a strange and wild landscape. One of the skills they employ is communicating using a simplified sign language that involves a lot of tapping of fingers and touching the thumb to certain parts of the hand. It was interesting concept that wasn't explained very well but it was fun to think about nonetheless. I hope the language feels a little more fleshed out in Spidertouch once you get to it!

Yay on baby cam. I haven't read any of your books, and I'm looking forward to your reviews. I like seeing inside the book stores.

I love seeing a book hail with a reasonable number of books! I'm guilty of buying way too many.

Computerize your books.... by Title and by Author. In 50 years I've collected 2900 books. I try to read as many as I can. Many libraries have periodic book sales. These are not "junk" books but fairly recent titles. I witness a feeding frenzy at these sales. Barnes and Nobels is for all of you who must mainline the most recent titles. (I have Premium registry.)

“Im not even supposed to be buying books right now” we all know how that feels lololol I haven’t read any of these! Excited to see what you think of them in future vids

This made me miss Half Price Books so much. I'd give anything to have one here in NYC. The closest thing we have is Book Off.

Nice haul!

Love the baby cam 🤣

Reading hyperion currently with my spouse. It's an experience.

Austin and I went to book off on your recommendation! It was a blast..... So much good manga!

Hi, awesome thrift book finds.👌 Spidertouch by Alex Thomson sounds very interesting. I've put it in my TBR list. 😊 We used to have GoodWill in Canada until 2016. We still have Value Village though, and I think that one started in California.😊 I also want to read "The Coward" as I read "The Judas Blossom" by Stephen Aryan when it came out in July 2023 and fell in love with it. The second book of that series is coming out in July 2024 and I can't wait to get it. lol ☺ My review for "The Judas Blossom" was in with my August wrap up and it's one of my early Videos. Not very good.🙃

Are you planning to attend Phoenix Fan Fusion in May? They typically have great Books & Authors programming.

If you enjoy "Spidertouch" you might try "Embassytown" from China Miéville, my favorite author 💚
