I ran to the library this morning to drop off one book that I had finished (Shopaholic Ties the Knot, gotta do that review soon), and pick up two more. I had them put the next Stephanie Plum book on hold, as soon as it came in from another patron. It was supposed to be in on 3/23, but they didn’t call me till Saturday, so I guess the other person was late returning it. This one is “Three to Get Deadly”, and while I was there, I asked about the fourth one, and picked it up as well – “Four to Score”. These books are very light and entertaining, and quick reads. I have 3 weeks to get them back to the libarary, and at the rate I’ve been reading lately, I think that will be plenty of time. 🙂
I am actually rather proud of myself… this makes 9 books that I have read since the end of January. I do believe that’s a new record for me. I know before I met Tim, I was a voracious reader. But, that was the old days, when I was single and not as busy! I don’t think I’ve read this much in a while, and I’m very pleased about it. I do love books, bookstores and libraries.
I can walk into a bookstore and something overcomes me. Some kind of feeling of, oooh, I want to read this and that, and thumb through this book, and sit down and read this magazine, and just sit back and enjoy the quiet. I’m not sure what it is or how to describe it. I have always been that way. I have always loved libraries and bookstores. Even more so now that I have finally “taught” myself to drink coffee (flavored only, thank you very much) and cappuccinos. Places like Barnes and Noble and Borders are even more appealing, and dangerous, to me now. 🙂
