CR Spring Blog : Just another WordPress weblog

I have a confession to make.  I’m a bookstore junkie.  When I go into a bookstore, particularly a used bookstore, I just can’t control myself.  There’s something about those dusty shelves, the dimly lit aisles, the smell of a good book… the thrill of finding a rare Mary Balogh or Carla Kelly book… before I know it, I’ve got a basket full of books to add to my overflowing TBR pile.

But the CR advanced book trade is here to save me.  By participating in the ABT, I get to find books for other people – how virtuous!  It doesn’t solve my problem with my overflowing TBR pile, since for every book that I find for someone else, a book gets found for me.  But it means I get the fun of “book hunting” for those hard-to-find books, while still getting books for myself!

I’m already planning a trip to my favorite used bookstores this weekend.  Although the book trade only started a few days ago, we already have more than 40 requests.  You might be surprised at what the book hunters of the CR book trade can find for you! 

If you want to join the CR advanced book trade, just check the book trade box on your registration form when you register (or email me at Karen@crspring.com).  You’ll also need to join the book trade list, which you can find under “newsletter signups” on the right side of the page.  I’ll send you more information on how to get started.

You can be a book junkie too!
