Blue Penguin Classics Pride and Prejudice, dog-eared
I lost my blue Penguin Classics edition of Pride and Prejudice yesterday around 3pm. I was at the Starbucks on Main Street in Blacksburg, near the Lyric Theatre, and I must have left it on a chair after a quick coffee break. It’s a well-loved paperback with a creased spine, a red ribbon bookmark sticking out about two inches, and a faint coffee stain on the back cover. This book has sentimental value—it's a gift from my aunt who introduced me to classics. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back!
Gold-tone bracelet with turquoise heart charm
I found a delicate gold-tone bracelet this afternoon around 2:40pm in the Market Square area on Main Street in Blacksburg.

Silver MacBook Air in black sleeve found near mall
I found a silver Apple MacBook Air (13-inch) this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the New River Valley Mall on Roanoke Street in Christiansburg. It’s in a black neoprene sleeve with a bright blue zipper. The lid has a small dent on the bottom-right corner and a round green pine-tree sticker near the corner.
