I grabbed some YA books from the Friends of the Tuscaloosa Public Library Bookstore today! I have zero clue what the tweens are interested in (my oldest is only 9), so drop some YA authors your kids like in the comments, please.

If you haven’t been to the Friends of the Tuscaloosa Public Library Bookstore, you’re missing out. They have tons of great books for $5 and under. They donated over $100k to the Tuscaloosa Public Library last year.

We are open and fully stocked except for Funfetti Circus cookies! There’s still time to grab an afternoon sweet treat.

🏈📚 SATURDAY IS A BIG DAY FOR SACKS IN TUSCALOOSA! 📚🏈

While Alabama is working to rack up sacks on the field, you can rack up a sack full of great finds at the Friends of the Tuscaloosa Public Library Bookstore!

Join us Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. for our Stuff-a-Sack sale!

For just $30, we provide the sack and you fill it with as many books, movies, CDs and other treasures as you can! (Specially priced items excluded.)

Then take your haul home, settle in, and spend the rest of your Saturday with the Crimson Tide while enjoying your new finds.

The only question is: Who will have more sacks by the end of the day — Alabama’s defense or our TPL Friends shoppers? 🐘😂

📚 $30 per sack
🛍️ We provide the sack
⏰ Saturday, 10 a.m.–1 p.m.

Fill a sack. Watch some sacks. Have a winning Saturday!
