When: Several times a year including May 3 – 23, 2012
Where: Kennesaw, Covington, Duluth, Cumming, Peachtree City
Cost: Free admission, cheap books

Some of the titles were slightly misprinted, either a cover too big or some pages cut funny, but all were readable books. There were also some novelty items that were in fine shape, but the packaging was opened or damaged.
