Books are really expensive here lmao...
#I dont know if it is because I'm just cheap#and like 90% of the times I buy second hand books#but some of the books are just outrageously expensive#like I debated buying a copy of secret history because I've wanted my own copy#and whenever I've tried to buy it was out of stock#so I'm picking up the book and I turn it around#and it is $32 my jaw dropped#which is approximately like £25 I think#I checked my local bookshops website and they were selling it for like £10 😭😭😭#so instead I bought some book merch#I bought a jumper?hoodie?sweatshirt? that had the bookshop name in it#I did buy two books that I was interested in plus they were affordable#I bought I must betray you by ruta sepetys and the sun also rises by ernest hemingway#there were these books that were covered so it would've been a surprise what book you got#I've seen something similar on etsy so I might buy it#looking back I think I’m just cheap because it wasn’t that bad#but I didn’t want to spend all my money on one bookshop#whilst getting my stuff the till wasn't working#I had originally picked up 3 books and was debating if I should return the third one or not#so whilst we are waiting for someone to come I'm like debating in my head if it is too much hassle to ask if I can leave one of the books#I felt really bad since there was already an issue with the machine#but I asked and lady was really nice and said it was fine#gatherrambles
