Same Murder Room wall after 1st day of sale

Here's the same wall in the aftermath of Friday's record-breaking sales. I came in early and restocked from about half a dozen boxes that we hadn't opened yet because there just wasn't any room for them. I also moved overstock down so that all but the top two shelves were full again.

We do restock every day of the sale. We put more items out every morning before the sale opens and whenever we have time throughout the day. Here's a sampling of the books I stocked this afternoon: Worst Case, one of James Patterson's new releases, Kitchen Confidential (Biography), The Book of Useless Information (Reference) and several of Ann Rule's books (True Crime). I put out Children's, general fiction, science fiction (one of our large donations today had a lot of sci-fi/fantasy), romance, mystery and non-fiction in every category.

We received three rather large donations today and will be adding those items to the sale as soon as we can get them priced. We take donations all year long. If you have books to donate, just drop them off at the Welcome Desk. The nice person behind the desk will be happy to give you a donation receipt for your taxes.
