Honolulu Friends of the Library book sale, 2008
The largest annual Honolulu book sale
If you love reading books, you should not miss the 61st annual Friends of the Library book sale taking place at the McKinley High School cafeteria, starting Saturday June 28 and ending on July 6. The book sale hours are:
June 28 and June 29: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
June 30 and July 1-2: 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
July 5: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
July 6: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
At the book sale you can find books on different topics: travel, health, science, fiction, literature, poetry and many more. The prices are more than affordable - $1, $3, $5 or so for a book. If you go the last day which is July 6, you can buy every single book for $0.50 only. On the second last day, they are all 50% off.
You can easily spend hours and hours in the cafeteria looking at all the books, magazines, videos and music tapes that interest you. This year there is also a large collection of music CDs for sale. One thing you should know though is that the cafeteria does not have AC, so it is quite warm and muggy inside. Be prepared for that.
If you get thirsty or hungry while there, you can buy some water and cookies.
And here are some photos I took inside the cafeteria:
