We're going to try something. This Saturday (11/7), from 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., we're going to have a porch sale. All the books on the porch will be $2 each. There will be hundreds of books available. All sorts. No shopping inside during this sale, but the store will open as usual at Noon. If you buy lots of books, we'll do this more often. Defunct Books, 1108 Woodland St.

After 23 years in this business, one thing I am sure of is that book serendipity is a thing. Gentleman comes in and asks if I have a copy of The Three Musketeers.

(Hmm....Three Musketeers....Dumas....oh wait!)

I had purchased a set of Dumas (which I was planning on splitting up) just today!

Here's one gorgeous copy of Three Muskateers for $20.

I tell him the story. He said, "Must be God." Well, then, God is a booklover.

The poetry book that was on display sold, so I am replacing it with this book by David Atamian, who survived the Armenian genocide and who wrote about the places he traveled to. Signed by the author. $15.

1956 The Ushers Astrological Forecast from the House of Usher. Very scarce astrological magazines. I have Aquarius, Cancer, Leo, Capricorn, and Virgo. 16 pages with forecasts, character analysis, The Moon as a Guide, moon table, and Your Triplicity and Quadruplicity. Great for collectors and practitioners. I also have these listed online, so of interested, I wouldn't wait. $25 each.
