In My Mailbox #6

Sunday 31st January, 2010
In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi of The Story Siren – who in turn was inspired by Alea of Pop Culture Junkie.

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.

*Dog not purchased nor swapped instead just lazy and refused to move.

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?

    Great books this week, I look forward to your review of Numbers. I enjoyed Love Sick but the others are sadly still in my TBR pile. Enjoy!

    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.

    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!
