Had some wins the last few days... 46 books for $54 from the local book fair, 3 happy children and one rather happy mummy.  Including, but not limited to those listed. Even found a copy of The Hobbit in far better condition than my own copy for 50c!

After spending many hours following trying to make room in my various bookshelves, I promised myself I wouldn't buy any more books until I'd read everything I already have...  

Then found a couple more Pratchett's and The Night Circus today at our newly opened local book shop at $6.  Couldn't even last 3 days without buying more books.  At least it's a healthier addiction than most.

And for real this time (I hope) no more books until I've read everything in my book case...

My book haul for today!! :-)

Last night my boys were watching Jurassic Park on TV, and it dawned on me that I had never read Michael Crichton's book.  I saw the movie when it came out, and I enjoyed that very much.  Perusing my bookshelves, too my surprise, I found that I actually owned a copy of the book, which I probably picked up at some used book sale or other.  I now think this will be my first reading project of 2014.
