A tragedy! I had to return Fashionopolis before I could finish it. Even tried self returning it and checking it out again to see if that could override the hold 😈 (unfortunately, it didn‘t work).

However, I turned right back around and placed another hold on the book, so hopefully in a week‘s time it will be mine again.

I‘m putting this here so I remember I was on page 178!

ValerieAndBooks The Litsy blurb is fascinating. How far back does it go? The industrial revolution? events like theTriangle Shirtwaist fire tragedy? Stacking, nevertheless! 5y
Godpants I hate when that happens! 5y
Pruzy @ValerieAndBooks Yes, it does mention the industrial revolution at multiple points throughout the book, but the triangle shirtwaist fire has not come up yet! 5y

Pruzy @Godpants Haha, thanks for the sympathy. Now I feel like I‘m in a spy vs spy battle for the book! 5y
Godpants @Pruzy I feel like I‘m constantly juggling my library books with middling success, so I‘m definitely very sympathetic. LOL 5y
Pruzy @Godpants Haha, perfect! 5y
Curiouser_and_curiouser Haha, you sound like me, I go through the library like it has a revolving door! 5y

While I'm slowly but surely getting through Hamdmaid's Tale, I found three more books to bring home. My eyes are starting to be bigger than my stomach. #libraryperks #librarywoes #bookhaul

BeyondtheBookends2 Some great picks you have there! 7y
LiteraryinPA The Wonder is good but slow. Maybe if you're coming off of another slow read you might want a palate cleanser? If so, I recommend the Nicola Yoon. Much faster paced! 7y
Daizy Same here. Getting through the Handmaids Tale slowly as well. 7y
BooknerdsLife Hahaa Same 😂😂 reading three books and eyeing another six books from the library 😂🙈 7y

Day 12 #JuneBookBugs #canteven I can't even... when this audio book hold came in tonight and it auto-checked out to me and I panicked inside because I now have NO Loans left and what if another book I REALLY want comes in and I have to decide between it and another book in my loans?!?! 😱😱😱 I can't even! 10 audio & e-books is never enough! 📚📚📚😬📚📚📚#librarywoes

Ashley_Nicoletto My library only does 3! I feel this panic allllll the time. 😂 7y
cariashley I say drop everything else and listen to this one ☺️ 7y

DebinHawaii @Ashley_Nicoletto Only 3?! Now I feel greedy complaining about 10!!😬👍 @cariashley I am tempted but it has 21 days & I have a couple due in a week. 🤔📚 @josie281 30! Wow! 🤗🤗🤗 7y
CouronneDhiver I understand! I usually borrow 9 to leave room... just in case. 😂😂 7y
RealLifeReading @josie281 30?? Wow! I only get 5 (!!!!) via Overdrive through the city I live in (US) but luckily I am also a member of the Singapore library system and I get another ... 8? there 7y
RealLifeReading Also I really enjoyed listening to this one! I think I may not have really read it all through but listening to her read her own book made it different 7y
josie281 Maybe because I am county. I'm not complaining! 7y
DebinHawaii @RealLifeReading Another comment that makes me want to listen to it even more! 😀👍 7y
DebinHawaii @RealLifeReading @josie281 It's so interesting to hear about all the different limits. Mine is Overdrive & our library system is through the state. (Of course we are a little state so I suppose 10 is fair!) Hah! 😆👍 7y
