Green Valley Book Fair
Aug. 15th, 2006 12:58 pmIt's time again for the Green Valley Book Fair, Aug. 19 - Sept. 4. For folks who haven't been yet, it's essentially a big book outlet sale that's only open a few times a year. The most I've ever paid for any single item there is $12, and that was for a $40 retail book on writing Dreamweaver MX extensions; most fiction titles I've found are in the $3-$5 range, and you can easily leave the place with two or three shopping bags full of books after having spent $50. (They've got some some example titles and prices on the preview page at the first link up above.) Anyone interested in carpooling down one weekend and checking it out? It's just south of Harrisonburg and it usually takes me about 1:45 or so to get there from the Fair Lakes area. I figure drive down in the morning, spend a few hours with the books, grab dinner someplace on the way back.
