I request a lot of books, but they trickle onto the hold shelf very slowly, so I only have two or three on the shelf at a time. And, since it's conveniently located only a foot from the door, I'm not wandering through the library, picking up books left and right. <br /><br />Of course, I still wind up checking out the same number of books in the long run, but at least now when I come home, my mother doesn't ask me what happened.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-90860571461098651002009-04-17T21:32:00.000-05:002009-04-17T21:32:00.000-05:00I always bring home way too many books, so I reall...I always bring home way too many books, so I really can't talk! lol I have way too many out from the library at the moment, it is preventing me from reading my own books!Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-39950068435830384512009-04-17T21:30:00.000-05:002009-04-17T21:30:00.000-05:00Great loot!

How did they jump from the shelves into my bag???? <br /><br />Same Difference is on my night stand. It looks good. The Princess Diaries is a great series; one I think you will enjoy. I've only read the first 2 books in the Gossip Girl series. I keep meaning to return to it.Shondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10430978671903519256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-4319236257424329382009-04-17T16:42:00.000-05:002009-04-17T16:42:00.000-05:00I did the same thing last week!

I feel if I leave them behind, I'll never see the books again!

When you've got two or three, well, you can *fool* yourself into thinking it's all reasonable.<br /><br />ReadingTub, I can understand :) And I'm looking forward to Gone.<br /><br />Callista, I look forward to seeing your list.<br /><br />Liyana, I had a semi-plan going to the library. Pick up books that I *should* have read already to be well-versed in YA--hence the Gossip Girl, Princess Diaries, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants--but haven't ever read before. These are books that I sort've assumed were too silly for me to like...but we'll see what I think!Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00793618692608823102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-43105619345031760662009-04-17T15:44:00.000-05:002009-04-17T15:44:00.000-05:00Ummm, Becky...correct me if I'm wrong, but don't y...Ummm, Becky...correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you always bring home at least 17 books? ;) Sorry, I couldn't resist. And of course, you know my teasing is only to cover up my sincere jealousy...because unlike me, you won't end up having to return a large percentage of your library books unread.Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429881953804634592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-55031781654691925762009-04-17T15:30:00.000-05:002009-04-17T15:30:00.000-05:00My TBR pile was crying because I've been reading l...My TBR pile was crying because I've been reading library books ... so I'm on a hiatus (sorry JMRL). <br /><br />Can't wait to see what you think of Gone.Terry Dohertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06246198932357846984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-72046332471973758622009-04-17T15:27:00.000-05:002009-04-17T15:27:00.000-05:00Wow and I thought my one-three a day spam was bad....Wow and I thought my one-three a day spam was bad. I'll stop complaining now.<br /><br />Anyways, I went to library today too. I exercised a little self control but I used to not be able to. I'd come home with 20 or more books as if I could possibly read that many. I'll be posting a list of what I got today or tomorrow.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04013633281843747712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-74579001373279994652009-04-17T15:11:00.000-05:002009-04-17T15:11:00.000-05:00Carrie Jones is a great writer, so Girl Hero shoul...Carrie Jones is a great writer, so Girl Hero should be amazing.
