I think, I may have gone a little bit overboard this week. I got a few books from trade, but the majority of the next 21 books were bought, at Borders closest to us and a Waldenbooks in Tampa who has a very very VERY rude person working in it, which you could not pay me enough to go back to.

That my friends is $300 worth of books in the last WEEK. I think I’m going to ban myself from buying anymore books (not including Debs) until I’ve gotten through at least 20 more books on my TBR, as it stands now there are 57 of them! I know that’s nothing compared to some people, but for me that’s a lot, however since I read almost 20(official count 16!!) books in January maybe I can be clear of my worry and guilt and non-book-buyingness by the end of February! Lets hope! How did you guys make out this week?

Awesome books and a cute dog! What more could you need? What breed is he/she?

Billy is a Boxer/Mix – we’re not sure WHAT he’s mixed with, although some people seem to strongly think it’s Dalmatian.

Oh my goodness — that is a gorgeous pile of books. And 57 is a giant TBR pile as far as I’m concerned. I really hope you enjoy “Looking for Alaska” — it’s one of my all-time favorite YA books.

WOW! That to me is a lot. I hope to spend all my sweet sixteen money on books. :) YAY!

I do hope you enjoy Laura Lippman’s work. She writes so hauntingly, but situates her plot in a way you think it could happen to you, in an instant. I think she’ll inspire you.
Been wanting to read “The Sky Always Hears Me..” I’ll watch for your review. Starting some new series, I see!
