My new goal for the week is to not buy any books starting Sunday.
Honest. I mean hell I have spent $60 in two days. I just added 22 books to the tbr pile last weekend (hmmm well I think I cut it cuz I traded in 15 books Wednesday but they weren’t all from the library sale).
I have no clue how many books I own that I have yet to read. It is some where between 200 and 300.
I am running out of space! And I am scared to buy a bookshelf cuz then I will have space that will need to be filled.
See… I am so not well. So no new books for at least a week! I shall try and last until The Rogue by Celeste Bradley and One Night of Sin by Galen Foley come out at the end of the month. But really if I can go the week I will be proud. And on that note…
New books!
If You Dare by Kresley Cole
A Date with the Other Side by Erin McCarthy
I wasn’t sure about this one but I read the first few pages and it looks great. She is an author who uses humor well. And since I just got Houston, We Have a Problem used as well as picking up another used today, it was time I bought one of her books new.
Murder in the Hamptons by Amy Garvey (helenkay and wendy’s rec)
I didn’t even go into borders wanting it but the bastards had a buy 2 get 1 free and all the marketsize except the one I went to get, I had already bought! Mucho annoying when Master of the Night by Angela Knight, Lord of Sin by Madeline Hunter, Fire Me Up by Katie MacAlister, and Talk of the Ton are sitting tbr.
I adored it after the first two pages. So damn it I bought two new trade size books. This is why I don’t go into borders….
Before my trip to borders, to run in and get one book If You Dare, I stopped in Half Price Books. They of course didn’t have what I wanted but did have
Mouth to Mouth by Erin McCarthy
Bad Boys Next Exit and Bad Boys on Board
I wasn’t sure if I was going to buy these or not since they are in trade size and 5.98. I was thinking about waiting until the mass markets come out this summer. BUT I am an odd duck and it will annoy me to have some in trade and some in mass. And since I currently have 7 or so and plan on getting Beach Blanket Bad Boys and Bad Boys Ahoy in trade size I got these. I am so not rebuying all of them, no I will not do it. Someone remind me I said that if I start to crack. I really do dislike trade size.
Yes, says she who just brought home five new ones. After buying two yesterday. Hell where am I going to put these? I think I will be on a Brava/binge this weekend because I am so going to read The Bane Affair by Alison Kent and am off now to read A Date with the Other Side hmmm or Murder in the Hamptons right now.
oooh buy 2 get one free always seems like such a good deal that I’ll wander around Borders until I find something to buy. Leaving without buying anything makes me sad. That’s why I try to stay out of Borders
Nice. I want A Date WIth the Other Side and Murder in the Hamptons. Going to a ubs today for a booksigning and maybe she’ll have some trades in used.
I didn’t realize Erin McCarthy had a new book. It seems like I just finished Mouth To Mouth. She must be a fast writer. I’ll be on the lookout for her new one. Thanks for mentioning it.
I bought Murder In The Hamptons too but haven’t read it yet. xina
