So [livejournal.com profile] heres_luck and I went to the other branch of the used bookstore this afternoon. We aren't necessarily the best people for each other to go bookshopping with, but we do have fun.


E. L. Konigsburg, Silent to the Bone (I picked this up in Barnes & Noble when it first came out, read the first few pages, was instantly fascinated, but did not buy it because I was in a particularly stern renouncing-worldly-pleasures phase. But lo these three years later ...).

Madeleine L'Engle, And Both Were Young. The 1983 version.

Laura Kinsale, The Dream Hunter, Flowers from the Storm.

John Dickson Carr, Till Death Do Us Part, It Walks by Night, The Lost Gallows.

Patrice Kindl, Owl in Love ([livejournal.com profile] desayunoencama! I found it!)

Peter Dickinson, The Dancing Bear.

Zilpha Keatley Snyder, The Headless Cupid, The Famous Stanley Kidnapping Case.

G. K. Chesterton, The Man Who Knew Too Much.

Margaret Mahy, The Tricksters, 24 Hours.

And, my favorite find from this trip, a pirated Taiwanese edition of The Wind in the Willows. It just amused me too much to be left on the shelf.
