when i moved house in march i reluctantly packed up my books and took them to a charity shop.
Anyway the other day i really wanted to read 'Jane Eyre' and the urge just wouldn't go away.
I told the kids we had to go getthe book from the library but the library was shut. So i went to the very charity shop i took my box full of books too.
I went in and asked the woman if she had 'Jane Eyre' in the shop. She said she had and got it for me. I leafed through the book and there was my name in the front of the book
I told the woman and she said it was the first time she had re sold a book to someone. I paid 40p for my book!

Im now on chapter 4

i just thuoght id share that story.
 
I love charity shops... I come home with some random crap sometimes :lol:

bit of a bummer you had to buy back your own book though :(
