This topic from Long and Short Reviews was an interesting one, because it took me back to my teenage years. We had a local market which had a bookstall and every week we would be there looking for cheap novels.
My friend was much more into it than me, I have to admit, because most of their stock was Barbara Taylor Bradford or Mills and Boon, neither of which I was really into. However, I did pick up a few while I was there - and donated them back a few weeks later after reading them.
These days it's new all the way. That said, if my current local market has a bookstall, it might be worth a look.
So do you prefer new or thrifted?
I like thrifting books. New books are too expensive for me.
ReplyDeleteThey are getting expensive these days.
