My library loan finally came in for this audiobook. I have the hardback but I‘m in the middle of another IRL book versus I only have about 3 hours left on my current audiobook. So I can start this audiobook sooner than the hardback. Mmm. Make sense? #camplitsy24 #jugglingbooks

Megabooks, squirrelbrain, BarbaraBB

Prairiegirl_reading Yes! Yes it does make sense! Preaching to the choir I think. 😝 7mo

squirrelbrain Makes perfect sense! 🤪 7mo

Roary47 Yep. Perfect sense. 7mo

BarbaraBB Makes perfect sense! And it‘s short. And you only need to read half for Saturday‘s discussion 😉 7mo

Texreader @Prairiegirl_reading @squirrelbrain @Roary47 @BarbaraBB I think this is #bookmath 😊 7mo

A Nail, a Rose | MADELEINE. BOURDOUXHE

Like @TheAromaofBooks I might have a Book Outlet problem. 🙈 All purchased before 2024... Because this year, I'm serious about the book buying ban. 🤪

Tamra Love a stack of new books! 😍 11mo

BarbaraJean 😂 I usually do some Christmas shopping on Book Outlet and inevitably several for me end up in my cart. They get me every time with their free shipping threshold. “I can pay for shipping or I can get some books for me, and then get free shipping… so it‘s like those extra books are free!” 😆 11mo

TheAromaofBooks Oooo I got The Time of Green Magic, too. I couldn't resist that cover and @BarbaraJean gave it a warm review! 11mo

jlhammar Battleborn is really good. Hope you enjoy! 11mo

sarahbarnes A good looking stack though! 11mo

janeycanuck The Knausgaards look like a series, though, so that only counts as one book! #bookmath 11mo

merelybookish @Tamra The best! 11mo

merelybookish @BarbaraJean Oh I know! It's hard not to keep piling in the books. 💸 11mo

merelybookish @TheAromaofBooks Yes, I just discovered Hilary McKay! And the cover is beautiful. 💚 11mo

merelybookish @jlhammar so glad to hear that! I've had it on my TBR for eons! 11mo

merelybookish @sarahbarnes Thanks! I have a thing for Knaussgaard. 🙈 11mo

merelybookish @janeycanuck Excellent math skills! 😁 11mo

sarahbarnes I just got The Morning Star from the library. The review from @batsy intrigued me. 11mo

batsy I really liked the tagged book! Hope you find it worthwhile. 11mo

batsy @sarahbarnes I hope you like it! It was such a strange and disconcerting read, in the best possible way. I've placed a hold on the follow up

The Wolves of Eternity: A Novel

11mo

sarahbarnes @batsy I‘ll be interested in what you think of the follow up! 11mo

BarbaraJean I hope you enjoy The Time of Green Magic! I was enticed by its cover... on Book Outlet... probably at last year's after Christmas sale. 😂 I LOVED Hilary McKay's Casson family series, and this one has a similar feel. 11mo

merelybookish @BarbaraJean Looking forward to it! I just finished her collection of fairy tales

Hilary McKay's Fairy Tales

11mo

merelybookish @batsy @sarahbarnes I haven't read any of his fiction outside of My Struggle which is auto fiction. So maybe I d never read any of his fiction ... 11mo

sarahbarnes I read this one years ago and liked it

I don't have a Book Outlet problem, YOU have a Book Outlet problem! 😂 All of my goals re: TBR reduction seem to be... not working already 😆
#BookHaul

IndoorDame I have also had more books arrive from Thriftbooks this year than I‘ve read from my shelves (like I intended) 🤫🤣 11mo

Bookwormjillk Maybe you just didn‘t have the right books on your TBR and these will be the ones you read? 😁 11mo

TheLudicReader There is no such thing as a BookOutlet problem. #enabler 11mo

ju.ca.no January is basically last year, so it doesn‘t really count for 2024, right? 😂😂 11mo

merelybookish Lol. That is not helpful @TheLudicReader 😂 11mo

TheLudicReader @merelybookish the problem is that I spent my snow day putting so many books in my Bookoutlet cart…and I like the comfort of knowing I have kindred spirits. 11mo

BarbaraJean Book Outlet is a terrible and wonderful place! I was proud of myself this year—while Christmas shopping, only one book for me snuck into my Book Outlet cart.🥇Also, I bought The Time of Green Magic from Book Outlet in a previous binge, so: solidarity! 😁 11mo

marleed They are like tiny kittens in a box out side a grocery store - you have to save them! 🐈📚 11mo

Gissy I wish I could buy in bookoutlet as I used to do for a couple of years, not anymore 😩They have amazing prices. Buying books and reading them are two different activities because we are book collectors📚😜 11mo

MaureenMc Y‘all are my people. 😂 11mo

janeycanuck Is that a series I see? Only counts as one book! You‘re doing great! #bookmath 11mo

TheAromaofBooks @IndoorDame @Bookwormjillk @TheLudicReader @ju.ca.no @merelybookish @BarbaraJean @marleed @Gissy @MaureenMc @janeycanuck - You all are the best kind of enablers 😂 11mo

Kalalalatja I just promised my bf yesterday, that I wouldn't buy anymore books until after Christmas. With all the Black Friday deals popping up, even here in Denmark, I'm beginning to regret that promise 😂 7y

TrishB Bargain 😀 7y

Cinfhen I know @TrishB I‘m not a maths person but I think it‘s like $3.00 an item... btw @Kalalalatja my hubby is about ready to explode...he‘s not very pleased with me 🙄 7y

LeahBergen How could you pass on this? It would be inhuman. 😉 7y

TrishB Definitely can‘t pass up on that! 7y

batsy Your #bookmath is 👍👍👍 7y

Pogue When dose this sale end? 7y

Kalalalatja Maybe we should be nicer to our non-bookish partners. My bf is starting to get a tic around his eye everytime I talk about buying books. It can't be healthy! 7y

Cinfhen I think the sale is through Sunday..maybe even Monday @Pogue ?! It‘s a really good deal! (edited) 7y

Cinfhen Why doesn‘t hubby see it the way you geniuses do?! @LeahBergen @batsy @TrishB #MEN (edited) 7y

BarbaraBB Did you ship them to your daughter 😂😂? I am checking the site out right now... 7y

Cinfhen Yes 🙈 @BarbaraBB another family member who's ready to strangle me!! 7y

BarbaraBB 😂😂 7y

Bourriquet76 My parents live about 40 minutes from the actual store! I go every time I visit. 7y

Cinfhen Wait??? There's an actual store????? Where @Bourriquet76 I NEED to plan a #ROADTRIP 7y

Robothugs 😂😂 look what you‘ve done @Bourriquet76 ! 7y

erzascarletbookgasm My maths is rubbish but my book-gut feeling tells me it‘s a bargain as soon as I see ‘sale‘ ‘discount ‘. And buy more for free shipping? Evil! 7y

Tamra Awesomeness! 7y

Cinfhen Gotta trust a book gut feeling @erzascarletbookgasm 😂😂😂😂 7y

Reviewsbylola I placed an order recently but such a good sale is hard to pass up!! 7y

Cinfhen TRUTH but I'm seriously in a time -out @Reviewsbylola I've been put in the naughty chair 🙈 7y

merelybookish Now I know what I'm doing this evening!! Maybe a few for the kids for Xmas to justify. 😬💸💸 7y

Cinfhen Definitely, I bought for my nieces & nephews 💝 @merelybookish 7y

#septemberwrapup #bookstats

Excellent month in that they were all great reads. Only snafu is that while I read 8, I bought/got 17 for the TBR.
That's just #badmath.

wen4blu Actually, that's #bookmath! 8y

elkeOriginal @wen4blu HA. Touché. 8y

Twocougs Thank you for that TBR #. It's nice to know I'm not alone😉 8y

elkeOriginal @twocougs These are books on the shelf - not just tagged online. It's a delightful sickness👍 8y

[DELETED] 1409720085 ME TOO. Only eight read this month and I bought 40(!!!) on my kindle. I'm a grab bag of emotions about this-impressed, embarrassed, thrilled, anxious. WHAT IF I DIE BEFORE I FINISH??? 8y

elkeOriginal @emilydecato Isn't that the fear we live with everyday? I am not sure how, but we seem to go on under the weight of that question...🙂 8y
