Pickpick

I read this in fits and starts over the last few months and realized that with a well written classic like this, that you‘ve read as many times as I‘ve read this, there‘s no need to read it straight through to be completely immersed in the story every time you pick it up. You don‘t loose anything.
⬇️

IndoorDame I always wondered at scenes in period literature where someone would just pick up a book and start reading aloud from a random point to everyone in the room. And I think I found some insight into that. How in a world where you only owned a few books, and read them again and again, everyone in your household would know all of them like we know one or two especially cherished stories. 3mo
dabbe Beautiful addition, too! 🩶🖤🩶 3mo
IndoorDame @dabbe I love these penguin classics deluxe editions! They annoy some people because the line isn‘t uniform in size, but the art is always spot on so I always want them. This is my 4th. They were having a sale on these when I needed to replace my tattered copy of Wuthering Heights and this one may have made its way to me too since I didn‘t have a grab and go paperback copy of JE. #noshelfcontrol 3mo

Had to begrudgingly run up to work on a Sunday. Decided to use it as an excuse to *just browse* for new books at the new-ish bookstore on the street. Found two books on my TBR. Decided to use "supporting a fellow small business" as an excuse to purchase them. ??‍♀️? #noshelfcontrol #bookhaul

dabbe There's ALWAYS room on the bookshelf to support small businesses. You done good! 🤩🤣😍 1y

Ruthiella 😂 There‘s no 12 step program for book addiction! 2y
Cinfhen Thanks so much @Cathythoughts @charl08 @squirrelbrain I don‘t leave until the 28th of August but I‘m definitely looking forward 🥰 2y
Cinfhen How true @Ruthiella 😂 (edited) 2y

TrishB Never say never 😁 have a fab family trip when it gets here! 2y
jlhammar Ha! Love it. It really is impossible to resist! 2y
vlwelser 😍😍😍😍 Seven Moons is on my wish list. Basically because it's pretty and not easy to get here. 2y
BarbaraBB You‘re sooooo predictable ❤️❤️❤️ 2y
Cinfhen You‘re so right @BarbaraBB These impulse buys usually happen at the end of a long and tiring day, when I feel like I deserve a treat 😜so I‘m totally predictable!!! Hopefully I‘ll find time to read them while im in the states @TrishB because if im being predictable (😉) I usually read less while I‘m with the family🥰 2y
Cinfhen I just watched a YouTube video from Erik Karl Anderson and he named Seven Moons his favorite from the list @vlwelser which is all I needed to hear @jlhammar and once I was ordering one I felt like why not get the other book that caught my attention 2y
Megabooks Lol!! Sometimes you just gotta do it!! 2y

I may have made a mistake—I stopped at the library to pick up my hold (the tagged book) for next book group. But I rarely get time to go when they”re open so I may have gone a little overboard. Especially since I bought a bunch at the bookstore last week….#noshelfcontrol
