📚Nostalgia Books Thrifted: Spooky Season Edition🎃

In expanding our personal library, I’ve tasked myself with collecting my favorite childhood books for the nostalgia factor and these were some big recent finds. I don’t have any Nancy Drew books from childhood so I’m starting from scratch and found this bundle for 50 cents a pop🤪

And there’s an inherent need to naturally spook my school aged child so had to add one of the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark to the shelf for the poor kid to find one boring, stormy day so that he can experience the green ribbon chick and the toeeeeee like the rest of us. It’s good for him I swear #bookcollection #spookyseason #thrift #nostalgia #scarystories
