One of our cat-loving community members donated a number of great quality cat-themed books today. You can find these in our "animal" section, on the left side of our center bank of shelving. One or more of these books will make a wonderful additional to any cat lovers home. $1 for hardcover, .50 cents for paperback. What a bargain! 😻

Any Stephen King fans out there? This is just a few of the books I found on our donation cart today. Normally I would put these on our "new arrivals" shelf, but we received too many to fit on the shelf! Look for them on the right side of our store, on one of the lower shelves. These are top quality books you can own for $1 for hardcover, and .50 cents for paperbacks. These will go fast!
