Twice is Nice

I’m a real book worm. I love a good book and can get through them like nobody’s business. The only problem now is that my house is coming down with them!
Unless a book was particularly fantastic, I will only read it once, so for that reason, I don’t like to spend an awful lot of money on them.
I popped into Twice is Nice on the off chance, just to see if they had any books, as a lot of charity shops don’t have a great range, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had lots!
I found two books I hadn’t got from a series of books I had been reading, and also picked up three good well known cookery books. Best of all, when I took them to the till, the whole lot only came to £6.75. I could easily have paid that for one of the books if I had bought it brand new!

Twice is Nice is my favourite newest discovery. I happened to stumble upon here on a lazy afternoon shopping with a friend. Now, to be fair, if I even so much sniff a second hand book I have sensors that flare and light up the room. I’m lassoed by an invisible rope that drags me toward it. I can’t help but nosey around for a bargain.
I was pleasantly surprised that there were actually some good books in here (note: some, most of them were rubbish) but this was juxtaposed alongside a funky range of second hand clothes, that were dirt cheap, probably the best prices I’ve seen in a shop. There’s an array of teddies, ornaments, toys, shoes, a bike helmet (hopefully for a collector or decoration, but if anyone ever buys this I really hope they get a severe safety warning!) but just nosying round the memoirs of the past gives me a real sense of history and the charm of all these products being recycled makes me happy (I’m a tree hugging hippy, what else can I say?)
