Mailbox Monday! October 17, 2022

Mailbox Monday is a gathering place for readers to share books they've acquired in the last week.
Mailbox Monday, created by Marcia @A Girl and Her Books, has a permanent home now at Mailbox Monday.

So, this is a couple weeks' worth, and this isn't even the whole pile. I also got a stack of manuals on Python and Linux that were used but in practically new condition (for the price, I couldn't pass them up). This all started because I went to the book store to get rid of some books, but we all know what happens when we're left unsupervised in a bookstore for any length of time... 🤣

What's in your mailbox this Monday?
