While I've collected most of my books due to loving history and information, I must admit, there's several I've gotten due to nostalgia.

1. My reading goal is 48 books. The last few years I've set it at that and it allows for wiggle room.
Hosting challenges #FoodandLit and #RiseUpReads
2. I don't have a specific book, but I've enjoyed reading the books I already own so I want to continue that
This was a great one to read at the end of the year to learn about voices I may not be familiar with and set me up for a really diverse reading year in 2025! #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks #diversebooks
Such a fun gathering with my #NashvilleLittens! One of my favorite holiday traditions. 🎄🎅🏼 Thanks to Amber for my extravagant and lovely gifts!
I love this idea. My 5 are somewhat obvious ones, but I can't help it. I love them. Make your list & share!
*“It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they elected the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York.“
*“All this happened, more or less.“
*“It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.”
*“The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.“

Quote from a one-nan show called "Bibliomania" by Roger Rosenblatt. The quote was in a coffee table book on libraries.
Adding my #LastTenBooks to the discussion. I couldn‘t finish King Lear when we read it in my college Shakespeare class, so I watched the movie adaptation over Christmas break 😬
I don‘t know that I‘ve ever lost or couldn‘t find a book that I own? My house is … small.
Thanks for posting! Fun.
I found the following circulating on a few book blogs & thought it would be fun to post here. #LastTenBooks I'd love to see your answers, too!
1)Last Book I Gave Up On:
Michael Wilson's “Girl In The Video.“ This is what I wrote in my reading journal: Just couldn't care anymore. Even if I had only 10 more pages. I could have lied & said that I finished it. This was lurking in the kindle graveyard & as King said, “sometimes dead is better.“

In the spirit of Kramer's "coffee table book about coffee tables," here's a "library book about libraries."
Since the beginning of the year I have seen several videos from content creators speaking about how they want to read fewer books this year, Perhaps they feel they are Bibliobibuli. “The sort of people who read too much,“ created in 1957 by H. L. Mencken. To this I say hogwash. Or, if you prefer, codswallop. “language, behavior, or ideas that are absurd and contrary to good sense“ (Merriam Webster)
