Books books, books (sung to the tune of Girls girls, girls)

Shawshank, November 23, 2020

So today, with moms approval, I was allowed to move the “Romance Rack” – consisting of at least 80-90% of Nora Roberts complete library out of my room, and back into the living room, where they came from.

The Romance Rack with all the dust catchers on it.

I waited until my mom and grandmother left for a hair appointment, then moved the bookcase out, and through multiple trips? Brought all the bodice rippers out.

So then, I had to move my bookcase over a bit. You see the chunks of wood there? I cut those, with no adult supervision! It only took a few seconds to figure out how to turn on the table saw. I need them there because when I moved moms bookcase, my books fell to the floor.

Wood paneling AND that carpet. Hello 1972!

Shady Acres is taking a nap. Then we’re off to SlightlyBiggerTown, and I think this’ll be the first week in a long time that I won’t look for books. For two reasons:

1. I’m out of money.

2. I’m out of room on the bookcase.

This will be the week that at least 1 of the books on my want list will be there, and someone else will pick it up. I just know it.

Make me work for it! I…

What are your quirky reading habits?

December 2, 2020December 2, 2020

Can you only read whilst death metal plays softly in the background? Or does Mars have to be in retrograde? What are your quirky reading habits? I want to know. I don’t think any of my book habits are quirky. When I read, it has to be quiet. Quiet. If the TV is on, I…
