Today I went to our local library's book sale. I came back with quite a few. As you can see, I head toward the children's section and books about history. I also picked out one cookbook and a book about squirrels titled, Squirrels Love 'Em Hate 'Em which might come in handy for the non fiction children's book on squirrels I have been working on.
I am also looking forward to browsing through the very large West Virginia Encyclopedia, Clementine's Letter, Scaredy Squirrel, Ruby Holler and Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed.
I have also won a few books from my fellow bloggers in the last couple of months. I am currently reading Navigating Early. I have already read the other three books. I enjoyed Like a River, but wasn't that crazy about the ending. The same goes for Rain Reign, I think the ending could have been better. I think a good ending in a book is just as important as a good beginning.
I wish I could collect time. Seems I never have enough time to do all the reading and writing I like to do.
How about you? Are you a collector of books, too?
I collect way too many books with the best intentions of reading them all. I am going to have to retire (again) from doing book reviews and jest start working my way through my already staggering TBR pile. One of these days...
ReplyDeleteHi Rosi. But, don't you just love your stack of books.
DeleteFirst of all -- your header is delightful -- it surely signifies you. Secondly, we do have identical passions that keep us reading and never caught up -- books. -- barbara
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara. I remember reading Jack and Janet when I was in school - a long time ago.
DeleteI also love to read. Looks like you have a nice collection of books. I like to check out an armload of children's picture books at the library and read whenever I have a few extra moments.
ReplyDeleteHi Brenda! I love reading, too!
DeleteYou remind me of me. I sometimes donate books to the library for their sales. Then I go to the sale and come home with more than I donated. My bookshelves over floweth.
ReplyDeleteHi Beverly. My bookshelves over floweth, too. I have piles everywhere.
