And it is that time of the year again when I am extra dorky, line up with some younguns (oh yeah there were people of all ages there) for the free comic books the Full Booked gives out. This year I was able to get the extra day off at the office so me and the Boo were able to go to the big branch that gives out more than 1 comic book.
I wanted to get to the bookstore early because they had an early bird promotion for the first 3 people they would get 1 copy each of all the available comics, a Fully Booked Tote bag, and some other stuff. So I woke up at around 3am, played Hogwarts Mystery, had breakfast, and then eventually got to the bookstore at around 8am. The line was already 2 blocks long and it was coiling. Some of the early birds even bought small plastic chairs for the wait time. Good thing the bookstore thought of giving out tickets. I think there were roughly around 1000 people there this morning. The weather even cooperated - it was downcast the whole day.
This is why we go to the big branch. Look at all those free comic books. And like I keep mentioning, I love free stuff. LOL. By the way, we also got free iced tea from
The Halal Guys, perfect for the muggy day.
This years haul.
Lookie that, I also got a Php50 ($0.97) discount on the Janus Silang graphic novel, which I am "forcing" my teen to read. LOL. I had to avoid some floors (yes it's a building of books) of the bookstore so that I wouldn't drool on the awesome new releases that I want. *sigh*
After the even my Boo and I decided we wanted to roam around the area. Where we went will be on my next post.
