I don’t usually post these ‘look at these books I just bought’ pieces, but today I can’t resist.
A trip to town yesterday ended with a happy book haul at a charity shop.

I wonder what’s the significance of the colour-coded bands at the top of the spine? Different sequences or series of novels? I need to check.
I’ve only read one Trollope novel, and that was The Warden, many years ago. Here in this unprepossessing shop was a complete row of pristine OWC paperbacks of the Barsetshire and Palliser novels.
I toyed with the idea of buying just the first one or two in each series; but at the giveaway price being charged, decided to buy the lot.
It was for a good charitable cause.
All those good intentions not to buy more books…Hope I’m not turning in my dotage into John Major, the lacklustre ex-Prime Minister who named Trollope as one of his favourite authors.
