I have roughly one million books checked out from the library right now (ok, only 61), but if the library isn't gonna give me a limit, why should I limit myself?? Not all 61 of them are for me, but I thought I'd blog a response to this fun post of Janssen's and show you what I do have...
In E-book format:
Wonder by R.J. Palacio
Fifty Shades of Gray by E. L. James

Dinner: A Love Story by Jenny Rosenstratch (I've read this one, but still need to make some recipes!)
The Half-Life of Planets by Emily Franklin & Brendan Halpin
In Honor by Jessi Kirby
Partials by Dan Wells
How the Marquess Was Won by Julie Ann Long

How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents by Julia Alvarez (my niece has to read this for high school English. I thought I'd read it too, but it's not appealing to me at all.)
Triangle: The Fire that Changed America by David Von Drehle
The True Meaning of Smekday by Adam Rex
Tweet Heart by Elizabeth Rudnick
If you know me at all you know I'm working on several of them, but there's a good chance that many of them will go back unread. Which ones should I be absolutely certain not to miss?

Holy kamole! How long can you borrow them?
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a seriously big list (and to think that's only a chunk of what you checked out!) Good luck as you plow through all of those!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up -- fun to see what other people are reading!

Nothing better than LOTS of reading options, is there?
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of books out at one time. I'd go nuts trying to keep track of it all. lol!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like my library list right now. I printed a list of what I had checked out, then took back twenty titles, promising myself I would get them again at a later date. However, my feeling of being free of too many books was short-lived. There were 12 items on the hold shelf with my name on. I always figure that checking out too many library books is really a non-problem. It's not costing anyone any money.
ReplyDeleteThe Handmaid's Tale is wonderful - very scary stuff, but not in the Halloween scary kind of way. Also read Triangle - because that fire has always fascinated me and I want to know if the book's any good!
