That being said, I love Booksale and one of them is the nearest outlet from my
office, the one in Cityland Condominum Tower 2 in front of RCBC Plaza.

I go there whenever I’m stressed or down. My boyfriend knows very well how my eyes literally
light up like a Christmas tree whenever I go inside that place. I don’t usually like waiting but if
my boyfriend tells me to wait for him there and he’ll buy me one in
return, no questions asked, I’ll wait for him like a good girlfriend would.
Hehehe!

I love my brand-new books no less, but hoarding second-hand ones is way easier, as they’re twice cheaper. The picture above: a copy of Anne of Green Gables at 120 Php and a cool pumpkin orange jotter pad for only 39 Php.

(c) ArdentArrianne.Blogspot.com I found this in a copy of The Kite Runner. It says on the back that the baby’s name is Courtney. Using your baby’s picture as a bookmark? So adorkable. :)
Also, there are surprising finds in pre-loved books: library cards, doodles, petals, dried flowers, vintage bookmarks, to cute baby pictures.
Read more about it in Wayne Gooderham’s The Secret Contents of Second Hand Books article.
I would like to believe that it’s my own little way of being eco-friendly? If no one’s going to buy it, where is it going to go? It’s sort of like giving a home to homeless books. Hahaha. :)
You can visit Booksale's website to find the nearest shop near your area. There's also a little second-hand bookstore at the second level of RCBC Plaza near Krispy Kreme and 7 Eleven called Books for Less.
