My Book Collection
I collect mostly Horror Novels and some Science Fiction. Mainly I am looking for Stephen King First Editions.
I don't collect for monetary value but to have these wonderful Novels and 'Rescue' them from being destroyed. As such, most of my books come from thrift shops. The books below were all purchased at thrift stores for, on average, under $6 each.
Below are not first editions just nice SK books :)
These Anne Rice novels were mostly purchased new. A few jackets missing. All First Editions except Lasher which I got from a thrift store for $1.99. ​It is a book Club version but still excellent quality.
Jean M. Auel's Earths Children series is wonderful. I was introduced to these by my mum back when they first came out. None of the
paperbacks are first editions but the Hardcover which I just found at a thrift store is and only cost $6.
As I said the paperbacks are not first editions but the Plains of Passage paperback does have a uniqueness as the embossing is miss-aligned. I'm not sure if this has adds (or subtracks) any value but it is interesting. see below
I grew up with these Twilight: Where Darkness Begins novels. Read all of them in my first year of high school. Currently looking but no luck so far. Below is an image from the internet. I also have memories of 'A Stranger with my Face' by Lois Duncan. Lois also wrote 'I know what you did last summer' which became a movie franchise. So I am looking for this as well but only in the below form, I don't like the other editions. (I repaired the cover image as I could only find a very rough version)
