This is the majority of my library stack. So much goodness in here, and I hope I can get myself to actually read all of these before I can't renew any more! (Tagged/Bottom book is for some genealogical research - we have a spur that is supposedly from Washington, one of my relatives was apparently his personal mail carrier and was given it. Trying to figure out what his war campaigns were like and track his movements!)

LeahBergen My personal mail carrier deserves more than a spur. That poor man! 😆 7y
LauraBrook @LeahBergen Hah, same here! Every time I see my lady (Pam) I apologize, and she just laughs at me for being such a book nerd. 🤓 7y

rubyslippersreads I would have trouble giving that Queen Victoria book back to the library. 😄 7y
LauraBrook @ForeverNerdy Thanks! It's a heavy stack! 💪🏼 @rubyslippersreads I know! I'm sorely tempted - there are even tissue paper pages still protecting the photograph pages! 😍 7y
DrSabrinaMoldenReads I do this too! 😉 7y
