Charity Shop Watch Part 2

I returned to the shop that had the three copies of "The Five People You Meet in Heaven". No copies of it remained but instead there were three copies of "The House at Riverton" by Kate Morton. Very odd.

Also is it weird of me to feel slightly offended when I see copies of books I love in charity shops? Its not as if I'm the author, but I still feel a bit put out that someone wants rid of something that is a favourite of mine.

For the second week running I didn't buy anything. I was tempted by a copy of "The Artist in the Floating World" by Kazuo Ishiguro, but I'm on a temporary book buying ban, having bought three books last week. I will lift the ban once these are read.
