It's a little more unique from her other works and the only one NOT set on PEI.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772667430500306088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-42600554107073032832008-06-08T13:16:00.000-07:002008-06-08T13:16:00.000-07:00Confession: I've only read the Anne series by LM. ...Confession: I've only read the Anne series by LM.

I've come to prefer our local Borders to B&N even though I have a discount card for B&N. Borders more often than not has what I'm looking for. I've been known to hit both stores in one day finding some books I want at one store and then going to the other to find the others. <BR/><BR/>It's true though that you're bound to have more luck online in general.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-63874228135900883022008-06-06T12:57:00.000-07:002008-06-06T12:57:00.000-07:00More reason to buy from Amazon! :)I agree that Bor...More reason to buy from Amazon! :)<BR/><BR/>I agree that Border's selection is limited. I found this terrific bookstore in Victoria, BC, with an amazing selection of kids books. I wish we had something like that here in the Seattle area.<BR/><BR/>Are you using Paperbackswap.com? It is terrific for getting books a little off the beaten track.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00411068031628918561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-79899192447740846402008-06-05T13:49:00.000-07:002008-06-05T13:49:00.000-07:00I had a similar situation the other evening at Bar...I had a similar situation the other evening at Barnes and Nobles... Often I do order online, but I'm headed out of town for a conference and had a list of books I wanted to flip through before I decided if I wanted to buy them...<BR/><BR/>So I get out my file of books that look good (I'm a librarian - I have a file folder on my desk that anything of this sort I jott down or print out goes into) and had a list that took up 1 and a half pages of a legal pad...<BR/><BR/>6 of them were in the store and none of them looked worth spending the money on (a couple of hardcover ones I might have bought had they been paperback - I'm more willing to take a chance on a paperback) And these were almost all ones published in the last 3 years!<BR/><BR/>So luckily I remembered a couple of novels a friend had recommended and was able to get them...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-81968765359422201642008-06-05T13:44:00.000-07:002008-06-05T13:44:00.000-07:00That's one reason that I buy almost all of my book...That's one reason that I buy almost all of my books online--amazon is almost always cheaper and they have such a great selection.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03789250398792504412noreply@blogger.com
