Re: Early New Year Present

Hi Moring-san This is Ken. Happy new year!

〉I accidentally got a new year present yesterday.
〉Guess what! It was 84 English paper backs.

Oh! great.

〉I'm in Osaka now. And I stay my parents' house.

Actually I live in Takatsuki located north of Osaka.
Are you in near here?

〉And I found English paper backs at a sale box outside the store.
〉Their prices are 100 yen each, because sale.

Was that shop Book-Off ? I believe Book-Off has yellow sign or plate.

〉I picked up some. And I found most of them are children books.
〉There is a "THE CHOCOLATE WAR". There are some PUFFIN BOOKs.
〉Also I found a DAHL's book, "Switch Bitch", but this looks not for children.

How lucky you were!

〉Any way I wanted buy these books.

Were I you, I should buy absolutely! If I was there....... I envy you!
ぃぃな、、ぃいなぁ、、ぃいいなあ〜〜！

〉Then I went to check counter for asking more discount.
〉I asked a man at the check counter how much I must pay if I would buy all of them.

It was brave of you to do that.

〉At last he gave me discount, or had offered 7300 yen for 84 books.
〉I had agreed that offer, and bought them all.

Oh, good deal!

〉I think almost books are level 4 to 8.
〉Then I may read these books near future.
〉But if average word count of these books is 30,000 words,
〉there are 2,520,000 words for 84 books.
〉This mean I may use whole this new year for these books?

May you enjoy each book in this whole year!
Happy reading.
