Today was the kickoff to the York County Heritage Trust's Book Blast at the Agricultural and Industrial Museum at 217 W. Princess St. in York. This Saturday is also a sale at the "Book Nook" in Red Lion.
Now, I love books. A lot. Some would say WAY TOO MUCH. But I'm always interested in getting more, whether it's from the library or from a good used book sale or a bookstore (preferably used.) One of Hubby's and my favorite pastimes is heading to the York Emporium in downtown York, and we have a vague dream of owning our own bookshop someday.
Well, at the encouraging of my friend and fellow blogger Pat, we ended up doing a story in the Weekly Record this week about book sales, coinciding with the events of this weekend.
We ran a story on just a few of the sales around town. There are certainly plenty of other coming events in the local book scene, not the least of which is Sci-Fi Saturday starting at 10 a.m. Saturday at the aforementioned Emporium.
If you know of another good book sale or bookstore, comment!
Thanks for the shout out about The York Emporium! Hope to see you guys during 'Sci-Fi Saturday' tomorrow!
