Greater St. Louis Book Fair


The Greater St. Louis Book Fair is once a year, usually the last weekend in April or the first weekend in May. 


Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie short stories.  I was happy to find both Hercules Poirot and Miss Marple. These will be a nice addition to my Agatha Christie collection.

Louisa May Alcott

A Whisper in the Dark, 12 Thrilling Tales by Louisa May Alcott. I did not know she wrote anything like this. I am very curious about this book.

I couldn't pass up a very old copy of Little Men. Now I will be looking for the Little Women to match. It is in very good condition for it's age. 



Fredrik Backman

I honestly think I already have this book but I'm not positive so I bought it. This copy looked like new for $4.  Backman is one of my favorite authors. His writing beautiful.  

Backman's new book will be out May 7, 2019. Things My Son Needs to Know About the World. 



Pooh

I love all things Pooh. I do realize that some of the books are duplicates but for .50 each I just grabbed the entire stack when I found them. Extra books will be put up for future grandchildren. (Yes, I am ready for grandchildren. Lol)

Star Wars

My daughter is a 4th grade teacher and these are for her classroom. She has a lot of Star Wars fans.

I definitely had more books in my cart but I am trying to only buy books that I collect the author or series.  I have been reading a lot on my kindle oasis and buy ebooks regularly when they go on sale. I also use Libby and Hoopla through my library. I probably have 5,000 books and need to organize them before adding too many more books to my collection.
