@thescottbarber I’m a Millenial and my first reaction was, “Wait…………. we don’t use those any more……?” ����😅

@PalgravePhil It’s a shame that Tolkien’s Theology of Beauty isn’t included in the sale. It always seems to sell exceptionally well when it’s discounted.

[Lisa Coutras @LisaCoutras]

@CarolynWeber So excited!

[Lisa Coutras @LisaCoutras]

@banzailibrarian Oh! Thanks for the heads up!

[Lisa Coutras @LisaCoutras]

@AleksMicovic Unfortunately I don’t know. The publisher does these flash sales and there doesn’t seem to be a pattern as to when or how much 😕

[Lisa Coutras @LisaCoutras]

It looks like the ebook version of Tolkien’s Theology of Beauty is on sale for $17. This post is clearly a bit late, as it expires today 🤦‍♀️
