Green Valley Book Fair swag picspam

So a couple weeks ago, my friend George and I went to this amazing book fair we have in Virginia, called the Green Valley Book Fair. It's about an hour away from where I live, and it's basically this old warehouse filled with new overstocked books.



I got to buy some fantastic books that I'd been holding off on buying simply due to price, and I'm really glad I got to go.



Books I bought:

I also picked up this fantastic shirt...


(it says 'got books?', I just got the picture at an odd angle, with the shirt slightly crumpled :P)

...and left nerdfighter notes...



...and really wanted to get one of THESE...



...but somehow resisted (WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY. JUST LOOK AT THESE THINGS.)




All in all, a fantastic adventure! I loved finding those books, getting to spend time with George, who I haven't seen all school year, since she goes to a different college and all, and driving through downpours. Whee!

That's all from me for today :) Tell me happy fun book shopping stories!

I just got an ARC of Cracked up to Be, written by Courtney Summers, through LibraryThing. Definitely looking forward to reading that very soon. Gotta get through The Calder Game first though.

I went to Barnes & Noble today. It really warmed my heart to see Thirteen Reasons Why and Just Listen sitting right next to each other on an endcap marked "Teen Favorites" <3
