Fall Book Haul 🍂🍂

 


It's been months since I've bought books! MONTHS!!



 I closed my shop earlier this year and packed up hundreds and hundreds of books but you know what? I miss my bookshop. I love shopping for books and I have a talent for finding valuable vintage books. I also can't help but buy my favorite books even if I have copies at home, I can't resist fonts and cute covers and that perfectly sized paperback. 


I also want to promote books to raise money for my animals, and then continue doing the work for other fosters. Moo Books was that title I gave, but I see it's more like a slang term. Hyla Brook Books is my official store name, #moobooks are the books that sell for fosters.


12 books. 12 seemlingly random books. Was I planning on reselling any? Any for me?

 From the top left to right: 

Charlotes Web, The Time Traverler's Wife, 1998 Scooby-Doo and the Haunted Castle

Middle left to right:

Flinston's Blast from the Past, The Glass Castle, The Personality of the Dog, Short Stories of Famous Women, A Dog Called Kitty

Bottom left to right:

Clifford's First Fall (spanish), For the Love of Rescue Dogs, 77 Things to Know About Cats, The Alchemist.


Look, I can explain. Each book is a quarter so for 12 books that's $3. (There's another tiny board book I gave to Aranza, it's Peter Rabbit. super cute tiny orange book.) I do plan to resell the animal books locally, to raise money for these fosters.

1. Charlotte's Web I'm giving away when I write an inscription to my friend.

2. The Time Traverler's Wife is personal.

11. 77 Things to Know About Cats is a moo book.

12. The Alchemist is personal.
