The Tower of Books

It’s time!

I bought another book shelf to get the books off the floor, piles of books toppling. I have been ordering books for several years now. Maybe an addiction or just maybe because it’s hard to resist a suggested title avilable from ThriftBooks. The price is almost always right. And when it isn’t I save it and watch it drop…or not!


It’s time!

I am goin to grab a book each week and read it from my shelves. No more using the library. I must make a literary dent in my stash. It is so easy to put a book on reserve and pick it up at the front desk of the local library. No need to trudge up the stairs and peruse the stacks. And now I have been reading e-books which I download onto my iPad. Free free free and yet, I have to begin the trek through my own shelves.


It’s time!

Currently I am about to finish The Kitchen Front by Jennifer Ryan. The book was mentioned in a blog I read and the library had the hard copy. I have enjoyed the book but probably will not use it as my selection for our senior center book club. It is an eantertaining story. I tend to select books that are gritty, challenging to read, Pulitzer Prize winners, not always liked by everyone but definitely discussion prone.


It's time!

I think I’llj just grab and read and pick one or two off the shelves at a time. Then when completed, pass them on and start clearing the shelves making room for more?!?! Oh, dear….

I’ll keep you posted regarding my reading choice, my challenges and how this adventure of the shelf clearing goes.


Happy Reading to You, too!
