I am a very happy camper right now.
Barnes and Noble has finally, finally, finally opened up a few blocks away from me. I have long said that what my neighborhood really needed was a bookstore, and now? We have one!
They were having an opening party - live violinists, free coffee, lots of books!
I emerged with Wren to the Rescue, Wren's Quest and Wren's War by Sherwood Smith, which is overwhelmingly exciting considering that Wren to the Rescue was one of my favorite books when I was younger. It spent more time in my room than in the library, and when I found out that there were sequals, I was thrilled - until I couldn't manage to track them down for love or money.
But now I have all three of them and I cannot wait to reread the first and read the other two for the first time.
Also bought A Million Open Doors, one of my favorite John Barnes books that I've been meaning to pick up for a while.
Happy now.
