IMM (In My Mailbox) is hosted by the amazing Kristi - The Story Siren!
BOUGHT
I broke down and bought this as Walmart on Wednesday night - it was on sale.
I snuck it into the cart with the groceries... think Greg noticed?
Bought this one tonight because of Greg - he thinks I have too many things ie. too many books.
I told him, "There is no such thing as too many books. It's called a personal library."
GIFTED
My BFF Aislynn (from Stitch Read Cook) found a SIGNED copy of The Golden Book of Faerie by O.R. Melling and she gave it to me. How freaking amazing is that? She knew how much I loved this series and bought it just for me. She is the best BFF ever! (The Golden Book of Faerie contains the entire Chronicles of Faerie Series: The Hunter's Moon / The Summer King / The Light-bearer's Daughter / The Book of Dreams.) I even hosted O.R. Melling during the Canada Day Blog Hop event last year.

LOL. My mother thinks that I have too many books as well. LOL. Yes, personal libraries are good.

I love personal libraries. :)
DeleteHaha I love how you "snuck" a book home in the groceries! My hubby also thinks that I have way too many books and he was trying to convince me to just get an e-reader and get rid my books and I'm like um... no way!! I tried to explain that a home isn't a home without books! :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to read Wander Dust and Remembrance-- hope you enjoy everything you got this week!

I sneak books all the time. The pile at home is so big he doesn't notice it growing by one or two here and there. :)
DeleteI have an e-reader as well, but mostly it's for reviews as I receive a lot of ePub files from authors for review. I feel that if I'm paying the money I want a real book in my hand. :)
Haha that's funny that you were "forced" to buy a de-clutter book. Books do tend to pile up when you're a blogger. Enjoy your Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI needed to tidy up the ridiculous piles of books I had all over the place. I keep telling him that we need a two bedroom apartment so that I can have a library - to me it's win/win... he gets to see less books and I get a library. ;)
DeleteMaybe after the wedding we will move into a bigger space. LOL
Why does it seem like our significant others seem to think we have to many books? I know my husband is always telling me that and is now starting to say that I am influencing my 8 year old as well hehe I personally think hey he is reading and he has his own little library why discourage that.
ReplyDeleteGreat books BTW.
Books are important, don't they know that? Hubby likes sports and I like books, I figure between us we will have well rounded children (when we finally have kids). LOL
DeleteNice mailbox this week. These are all new to me but I love the cover of Switched.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your new books,
