      I've only been to one public library that sold used books. They only wanted .50 for hardcovers and .25 for the paperbacks. A great deal all things considered but I was not interested in any of the books on the shelves. I recall seeing a couple of Steven Erikson and Jim Butcher books all in great condition. I don't remember what else they had but even at .50 I knew I would likely never read them.

        Just finished the second book of the Outlander series "Dragonfly in Amber" and then immediately picked up "Voyager". I think I'm addicted.

          It's a good series, even the last two which I think are the weakest of them are still good reads.

                I havent read the others, but if this book is anything to go by, i will.

                I think its a newer one. Its set 10 years after Covenants death. Dr Linden Avery has gone back to The Land to rescue her son from Lord Foul.

                Lord Foul is unmaking the very laws of nature and if he isnt stoped, he could destroy everything(A quote from the back of the book)

                  OK that's new.
                  You should read the whole series . The quote I gave is the first line of one of the books. I think the second. I have always remember that quote.

                          There are 3 in the Chronicles
                          and then there are the second Chronicles: One Tree, the wounded land.....
                          Amazon.com will give you a list in Chronological order. I think I may have given them out of order

                              Has anybody mentioned the Hunger Games? Great book and the second is supposed to be even better (comes out Sept. 1). It kind of has a 1984 feel to it, but it's not really anything like it.

                              I read the Vampire Academy books this week and I enjoyed them. I actually only liked the first book, but absolutely loved the series by the time the third book was finished.

                              I also started Wicked Lovely today and even though I'm not even halfway I love it so far.
