I have been volunteering my time down at the Friends of the Phoenix Library. A non-profit organization who collects donated books to resell and recycle in order to raise money for the library systems in Arizona. I love books, all kinds of books. It could be because my family owns a bookstore in my hometown so growing up books were a major part of my childhood. These days ebooks, kindles, books on tape are all very popular and as much as I love technology there seems to be something about the smell of a hardback book. Each time a person volunteers at The Friends of the Phoenix Library, you are able to take 5 books home with you. Distressed books that are not able to be sold, but none the less 5 books. What gems I found!! I was so excited. Two vintage coffee table books on fashion and the hardback version of "What Would Jackie Do?" (a woman's guide to living in style such as Jackie O.) I am such a lucky girl to have found these gems in old pins no one wanted! I guess it is true, one persons trash is another persons treasure! Happy Bubbly Tuesday Friends!

I'm with you, there's just something about a hardback book. I just can't use a Kindle.

What a great way to spend your time :) Volunteering is always so rewarding in itself, but it doesn't hurt that you got to take those gems home!
Those are definite treasures...I don't know how you find time to do it all...and I have said it before and I will say it again...your bubbles are too perfect! xoxo!

what amazing finds! Interesting your family owns a bookstore! My mom is a retired librarian, so books and libraries have always been big at my house :).
You look lovely in pink!
