    Whoa!! How did you get them all out to your car? LOL. You're making me feel positively saintly that I only bought 20 at my last library sale. ;)

    Jennie ~ I need to learn to reign myself in :D I now have 374 books in my TBR pile. Thank goodness there's a few holidays coming up so I have some time to just lounge and read!

    Wow, that's a lot of books! Very good deal. I'm reading Julie Garwood's The Wedding right now. I love that book!

    Izzy ~ It's too many books! I have close to 400 books in my tbr pile now, although I am excited about quite a few of my finds yesterday. I need to spend less time on the computer and more time reading, or I'll never get through them!

     

  • At 12:02 PM, Blogger Holly

    LMAO! Jeez, Dev. That list just kept going and going and going!

    You got some great books, though. I hope you find lots of time to read!

    Holly ~ Yup. And I'm going out today to buy the Laurie Brown book. I'm taking the last two weeks of December off, then of course a 4-day weekend for Thanksgiving. Wonder how much of a dent I can make in the pile?

    Holy-freakin-crap!! I kept pushing the down arrow...and pushing the down arrow...geez! Great haul though!

    Jodi ~ I have no self control. I admit it. My name is Dev and I'm a book-aholic.

    Wow! What a haul.

    hee my last library sale was forever ago, at least two weeks...

    My first box was 4 dollars. They were 10 cents each. LOL yeah do the math, as I left she said oh come back we are about to do our dollar sale.

    A DOLLAR! And you get whatever you can put in the bag. I got two.

    See I don't think of it as book buying. Oh no, it is a selfless donation. No really.

    Travis ~ It was a heavy box. That's for sure. And it's still in my living room, because I don't have anywhere to put them.

    Sybil ~ The dollar sale was today. I thought about going, but didn't. I figured I did enough damage on Friday.

    Holy cow!! How freakin' fantastic is that?? You go!

     

  • At 9:08 PM, Blogger Dev

    Lori ~ I still don't know when I'm going to read these. And I'm out of drawers in my linen closet. :-)

     

  • At 9:39 PM, Blogger Rosie

    Amazing! You have some great books in there though. Can't wait to see what you read first.

     

  • At 8:19 AM, Blogger Dev

    Rosie ~ There's a few I'm eyeing. I need to finish some of the books on my TBR list first though :-)
