Hey earth muffins! Reading is one of my favorite pastimes; many people agree with me too!

The Top Places to Find Used Books Near You:

First up, do a quick Google search to see when your local library puts on a used book sale! Libraries often get a ton of book donations, which means they can sell some pretty great reads at these sales.

Hey earth muffins! It shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that I love to read (just follow my Instagram if you need proof!). While I typically use my local library, there are some books that it unfortunately does not have. I thought it would be fun to order some eco books off ThriftBooks, as they have been on my “to-read” list for awhile now. I haven’t used this secondhand book website since college and was excited to support it again. Let’s jump right into my Thrift Books haul!

This book was listed in “Acceptable” condition for a price of $5.09. I had added it to my “to-read” list after seeing it at a local gift store in my town. The text looks like it is handwritten, so I thought it would be a fun coffee table book after I read it.
