She Would Be King: A Novel | Way�tu Moore

Omg Catie, not only are you literally saving lives on the front lines of Covid, you found time to send me this book! You are so incredibly thoughtful! Just yesterday I was thinking, “I want to read more from the African diaspora,” so now I can check Liberia off. And a beautiful edition, too! 💜💜 Seriously, thank you. #litsylove #bookfriendsarethebestfriends

Book Friends | Edna Henry Lee Turpin, Rose Lees Hardy

A friend of and I did a socially distant borrow book swap this weekend. I let her borrow a handful of graphic novels from my shelves and she let me borrow these gems. In times like these it‘s the little things that make a big difference. 🥰 #bookfriendsarethebestfriends

Also, Tilney just can‘t help but photobomb all the time these days #catsoflitsy

Soubhiville Yay! Looks like a good stack. I‘ll be interested in whether you like Book of Joan. I bailed pretty quickly, but it was in March at the beginning of the lockdown and I might retry it at some point. 5y

The Best of Dorothy Parker | Dorothy Parker

The wonderful @Sarah83 sent me surprise #BookMail 😍

Thank you so much, Sarah! 😘😘😘
The Folio Edition of Dorothy Parker is wonderful. I admit, I haven't read any of her writing yet. (I think) Looking forward to reading the book.

I'm not showing everything I got, because some of the tea and the hot chocolate is gone already. ☺️

squirrelbrain Lovely gifts! ❤️ 5y

In the Dream House: A Memoir | Carmen Maria Machado

Coffee, books & BBQ are always better with a friend! Spent a wonderful evening with the always fabulous @ElishaLovesBooks (seen above perusing a book) enjoying a little of all three. Perfect timing too since there is no school tomorrow & we are expecting 3-6 inches of snow. Thrilled to get my hands on a signed copy of the tagged book—especially since the author‘s event last Friday was sold out. Found the other three books on the sale shelves. Yay!

ElishaLovesBooks Best night out! 💓💗💓#bookfriendsarethebestfriends 5y

Self Helpless | Rachel Hall

I‘ve ordered 11 books over the past weekish. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Five from Amazon, and now six from the BN bookhaul. I just can‘t stop!! Can anyone here be the voice of reason or am I asking the wrong friends? (Probably asking the wrong friends! 🤣)

Librarybelle Probably asking the wrong friends...I ordered 10 from the Barnes and Noble book haul... 😂😂😂 6y

Lizpixie Yeah....no voice of reason from me sorry. I‘ve just finished paying off a large credit card bill for all the books I bought in June! If you‘re trying to stop buying books, Boy are you in the wrong place🤣 6y

CaroPi Sorry I think that we all love to adopt new books. In my last trip to Colombia and US I got 25 6y

hermyknee Woops 🤷🏻‍♀️ (also, same) 6y

TrishB No hope or help here 😁 6y

heidisreads I love buying books, too. I often offer them to local libraries after I‘m done reading them. It makes me feel less guilty! 6y

abookishbutterfly If I had the money right now, I‘d be buying from the B&N book haul. 🤷‍♀️ (edited) 6y

MicheleinPhilly Don‘t look at me. 6y

Crazeedi Let me see, how many books do I have that I haven't read yet? Sorry I can't help you! Lol 😉🙄 6y

Melissa_J I had about eleven new books enter my home last week, so rather than be the voice of reason I say keep the book buying flowing 😂 6y

riversong153 Voice of reason: Stop buying books! 😆 6y

TheSpineView Wish I could but I have been worse than you!🤣🤣🤣 6y

AprilMae "Stop buying books!" ( as I add 3 more to my cart and another to your pile) yeah, I'm no help ??? 6y

Redwritinghood I‘m definitely the wrong person to ask! 6y

Megabooks @Librarybelle @Lizpixie @CaroPi @hermyknee @TrishB @heidisreads @Butterflyamore @MicheleinPhilly @Crazeedi @Melissa_J @RiverSong @TheSpineView @AprilMae @Redwritinghood I knew if y‘all couldn‘t stop me, at least you‘d understand!! 💙📚💙 #bookfriendsarethebestfriends 6y

OnlyYoo Lol I just bought books at BN too! Honestly, if it‘s fifty percent off it‘s not my fault. They made me buy it! 6y

marleed I forced myself to just 3 at the B&N 1/2 price sale because I‘m trying to have strict rules on a brand new book purchase. But then I stopped by Savers on my way home and picked up 6 thrifted books! 6y

BarbaraBB I am always ap happy when they arrive, that makes up for all the guild after ordening them 🙈😂 6y

LapReader The naughtiest I‘ve ever been was spending $500 on books in a week. Some were gifts though. 6y

Megabooks @OnlyYoo I‘m going to use that, too! 6y

Megabooks @marleed I am ridiculous because I prefer new hardcovers. I have champagne taste and a beer budget! 6y

Megabooks @BarbaraBB I know! I try to intercept the mailman! 6y

Megabooks @LapReader I‘m jealous! I would love to do that! 6y

marleed Oh I get that! I actually keep the receipts in my full price purchase hardbacks because, ya know, they are special. But this year i have anew thought... would I donate $100 annually to keep our local bookstore in business. Hell yes! So, I can purchase 1 book on the first week of each season at full price. And really, it‘s free since the book price was my donation! I like this concept - it works for me! 6y

MartinaLove You're asking the wrong friends. 😂 Enjoy your books!!! 6y

KarouBlue Girl!!!! I buy that every week! Book buying and reading - 2 separate hobbies!! 6y

Megabooks @marleed I wish I had a local indie! I only have a BAM and the BAM used chain. There is a local comic store, but I‘m not into comics. The next town over has a BN but no indie. My dad bought me three books from Parnassus for my birthday, and I‘m seeing Rainbow Rowell there (and buying Wayward Son) next month. Nashville is two or so hours away. 6y

Megabooks @MartinaLove Thanks! 😊😊😊 6y

Megabooks @MellieAntoinette That is definitely true, but I find myself gazing at my books and feeling at peace! So I guess if I can buy peace, then why not? 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y
