Lord bless Half-Price Books and all that they stand for.
( cut lengthy library aquisition list to spare those who do not care. )
I have no idea how I'd get all these back to Boston if my parents weren't coming to visit in two weeks. As is, I luck out immensely. I haven't ever spent this much money at Half-Price all at once before, it's very intimidating.
Oh, note to whoever can get access - they had hardcover Firebirds anthologies for $4. I actually had to put books back on the shelves, or I'd have gotten a few to give out as gifts.
My father managed to return my copy of Scardown to me. It has been... well, "well-loved" is a good euphemism for it, I suppose. It suffered many bendings of its cover on the way back from Aruba, but thankfully no water damage. I'm distraught enough to consider buying a new copy (as I've seen one all lonely in the Coop). That, however, will be a wait & see.
