Went to one of the local St. Vincent de Paul thrift stores this afternoon and made out like a bandit on books:
- Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer - One of my favorite Booktubers has been raving over this book so I was thrilled to find it for all of $2.
- A Sand County Almanac: And Sketches Here and There by Aldo Leopold - No shock to find a copy of this book here, since he wrote it based on his work restoring land here in Sauk County; what’s amazing is that I’ve somehow never read this.
- Wisconsin Lore by Robert E. Gard and L.G. Sorden
- Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return by Marjane Satrapi - Found in the children’s section, because comics are for kids right?
- Bats Sing, Mice Giggle: The Surprising Science of Animals’ Inner Lives by Karen Shanor and Jagmeet Kanwal
- Sonnets from the Portuguese and Other Love Poems by Elizabeth Barrett Browning (illustrated by Adolf Hallman)
- The House of the Seven Gables by Nathaniel Hawthorne (fiction)
- The Witches by Roald Dahl (fiction)
- My Year of Meats by Ruth Ozeki (fiction) - Her book A Tale for the Time Being (a previous thrift store find as well) affected me profoundly so I’m happy to check out her other works.
- The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern (fiction) - I have Neviahofflame’s copy of The Starless Sea in my locker at work, waiting for my mood to swing back to fiction. She praised this book in passing as well, so when I saw this $2 hardcover copy I leapt on it.
I also found a 1951 copy of A Kierkegaard Anthology (edited by Robert Bretall):
There’s really no cover image to show (it’s just… blue) so here’s the spine with Tori judging me in the distance.
