I had a dream last night that a used bookstore opened up in Cedar Key. I just had to go in it, of course, but I didn't have much hope that there'd be many good things in there. However, it was HUGE and overflowing with books, most of which were series I used to like back in middle school and elementary. There were Boxcar Children, Nancy Drew, Sleepover Friends, Fear Street and Goosebumps, Girl Talk, and basically every series I could imagine. I've never voluntarily given up a book, and I have all of those series back home, boxed up in my closet. To give you an idea of how many books I have, I have five bookshelves loaded down, other random little tables filled up, and about five boxes in my closet. My plan has been to save those books for my children or for me to read again, and I always think that when I own a house, it will have to have a library. Anyway, my series aren't all complete - most of them come close, but I'm missing out here and there, so I was so excited that through the bookstore in Cedar Key, I'd finally be able to fill in the gaps in my collections. It was such a good dream, one of the best I've ever had.
