9 observations:
great loot this week, you got a lot of great books
Ted Dekker's series is listed as Christian fiction. I have that in my middle school library and the boys love it!
At first I thought you had a ton of loot. (Like how in the world is she going to read all those books?) Then I realized you only have one book for yourself. Not feeling so intimidated now. ;)
Thanks Staci; I thought it might be from the back, but wasn't sure. It's good to know they're liked.
And Alyce, no I won't read all of those; they're for my 12 yo who plows through at least a book a day. It's so hard to keep her in books...
I'm actually approaching my library limit (50), so I'm going to have to exercise more retraint! :) My problem is I've read a lot of the books but haven't gotten around to reviewing them. lol That should make you feel better! :)
Goodness gracious that is a lot of books! I'm still trudging through the books I got a week or two ago - I have a problem letting a book go once I've started!
I would love to stop putting books on hold. I already have a ton of new books to read. Maybe one day! =)
LOL! I feel your pain as I have one too many books checked out. But I just can't seem to stop :)
Thats the beauty of renewing! LOL
