Wow! I have yet to read Sarah Dessen. I really should. I have never looked at the bargain books part of Amazon. Is it a link on the main screen?

Happy Reading!

Wow you really hit the mother load on savings! I'm going to have to start keeping my eye on those Bargain bin prices on Amazon from now on. Great haul this week!

Look at all those pretty books! I am very jealous. So many of them I want to read. I can't believe they were $5.
I have read An Abundance of Katherines and it was very funny.
Enjoy your books and congrats on the winnings as well

I didn't even realize Amazon had a Bargain Books Bin!!!

Dudddde! That's a lot of books! Read some of the Sarah Dessen ones in my pre-supernatural days! I liked her books! Blood and Chocolate was a definite fave of mine too! Totally different than the movie and I like it better than the movie as well, even though when looking at the two as separate stories the movie was good too!
My IMM goes up tomorrow, be sure to stop by!

Jessica@a GREAT read

What a great selection! I deliberately avoid the bargain books because I have way too many on my TBR stack already. But someday I too will read a book by Sarah Dessen. She just seems too ChickLit for my tastes now. I did like Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side, Blood and Chocolate, and Once a Witch though. Happy reading!

Wow, really great selections! I have yet to read a Dessen book, I still have The Truth About Forever sitting on my desk :/

Oh wow!!! That's quite the haul!! But with those prices, I can hardly blame you – I've wanted to read A Northern Light for the longest time. Happy reading, Missie!

NICE! Can't wait to see what you think of Once a Witch, I really liked that one. I've heard Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side is fabulous as well!

Holy crap, Missie!
Reply
Woah! I really enjoyed Jessica's Guide and Blood and Chocolate (sooo much better than the movie!). I was sobbing my eyes out when I read Flipped. My fiance knows it as the book with the eggs scene that makes me cry. I hope you enjoy all of these!

Wow. that is an amazing haul. I am SO not going to amazon or I'd be in trouble.

Holy guacomole! You hit the jackpot with the bargain section over at Amazon. I didn't even know it existed! Going to check it out… wish me luck.
WOW again

Nice! Great selection of books. I found that bargin bin on Amazon. I looked at once but never found anything I liked. I didn't realize I could look at different categories. I found a bunch I've been wanting. Never read any of Sarah Dessen's books. I love Ibbotson's covers! I hope you enjoy all your books
Reply
I totally bought Once a Witch and Jessica's Guide to dating on the Dark Side through Amazon's bargain bin too! I'm so excited to read them and I hope you like them too! Happy reading
Reply
Holy Sarah Dessen! *races to Amazon Bargain Bins to buy all of these
Reply
Wow you did get a lot of book. I can never resist a bargain either. I hope you enjoy them all and congratulations on your wins.
Reply
Fabulous mailbox! I can't believe you got each for less than $5.!
Reply
WOOT WOOT! Now I don't feel bad about double checking the $5 bin at audible and picking up a few more
I do believe you and I would Epic Fail at being sponsers for a book buying ban

WHOA I have never been the 1000th follower before!!! Congrats on your 1000 followers!
You have got yourself a nice pile of books here and I can't believe you got em all for less than $5! I know most of them and the rest of them I should totally read!
