Oh, Harvard Bookstore...

...you did it to me again!  I was minding my own business, innocently walking to DDs, when you trapped me with your bargain table on the sidewalk.  I just do not think it is fair - I can resist going in.  Sometimes.  But when the books are right there on the street, how am I supposed to help myself?!  It's entrapment...
Managed to escape really well, though, all things considered.  At one point I was staggering towards the door with five books, but I narrowed it down to two, and they were both only a buck, so cheers to me.  A book called Dupont Circle - don't know what it's about, but E and I have had a lot of fun there, so obviously a reason to spend my money on it - and a copy of Thursday Next in the Well of Lost Plots - it's too good  a book for me to see it sitting there, FOR A DOLLAR, which is just INSULTING, and not grab it.  I feel good about having my own copy, so definitely a win on that one.  I kinda want to go back and get a book of these 19th cent. letters between a mother & daughter, but we'll see..
