I picked up some good books yesterday on my rounds at four thrift stores. I don't know if they are already on Bookshare but they looked like interesting reads for me. Well, one I am not going to read, I am just going to scan: Ideas Behind the Chess Openings by Reuben Fine It's copyright 1949 and my edition is the 1973 but it looks like a much easier job to tackle than the other chess book I did. That should please some chess fans! I also picked up Leaving L.A. by Rexanne Becnel, which is not in the collection. So I will eventually scan it unless someone else wants to do it before I get to it. I found The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella in hardcover for 50 cents, which is in the collection already. I also found Spite Fences by Trudy Krisher and that's in the collection. I found From a Sealed Room by Rachel Kadish which looks like a good book and that is already in the collection. I picked up Ella Minnow Pea: A Novel in Letters by Mark Dunn, and that is not in the collection, so I will scan it unless someone else wants to do it before I get to it (I scan library books before my own owned books). For the kids I found a good looking book called Camp Confidential: Grace's Twist by Melissa J. Morgan which has handwritten parts in it. Those I will type in when I scan. It seems to be book 3 in a series of books. And I also found Franny K. Stein: Mad Scientist Lunch Walks Among Us by Jim Benton which has also got some handwritten parts in it. This is book 1 in a series for kids.
