Book sale buys

I did, indeed, find some good books at today's book sale. For $11, I got 12 books, mostly hardback. Four of these were on my wishlist, too, so that's even better! Here's what I got:

The Autobiography of Henry VIII, with Notes by His Fool, Will Somers by Margaret George
The Yiddish Policemen's Union by Michael Chabon
*This is practically brand new still, and I got it for $1!
Alice's Tulips by Sandra Dallas
*From wishlist. I read the first in this series, The Persian Pickle Club, last year, and while I don't typically get hooked on series, this one was good enough to buy used.
Crispin: The Cross of Lead by Avi
*Newbery winner
A Wizard Abroad by Diane Wrede
*My husband bought the first few in this series (Young Wizards) - I hope he doesn't already have this one!
The Mercy of Thin Air by Ronlyn Domingue
*From wishlist.
Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson
*I've read a couple of other of her books (Speak and Fever 1793) and really liked them.
White Oleander by Janet Fitch
*From wishlist.
The City of Falling Angels by John Berendt
*From wishlist.
The Memoirs of Cleopatra by Margaret George
The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield
*I bought this one because I'm pretty sure it's on the high school Name that Book list that I'm trying to complete.
Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris
*This one will be great to stick in my bag for waiting for my shuttle.

EDIT

I picked up one more book today (Aug 2):

The Children's Blizzard by David Laskin

Book sale

At my place of work, the patient/family library used to host used book sales roughly quarterly. I was under the impression that as of last June (I remember the exact date of the last one because I broke my ankle bringing the bag of books I had bought into the house) they were not going to be holding the sales anymore, and this has proved true for the past year. However, today I noticed a bunch of tables set up in a public area where they typically have sales and events of various types and thought the arrangement looked suspiciously like the arrangement they have used for the used book sales in the past. Sure enough, as I was leaving for the day, I saw all the boxes of books stashed, ready for the sale tomorrow. I am so jazzed! I have come home with some really great books from these sales! Hopefully tomorrow will be as successful, and I'll report my finds here. I'm giddy with anticipation!
