I noticed it was Buy-A-Friend-A-Book week either last week or the one before and I hope I was able to do my part by shipping off I’jaam to Beastmomma – that counts. right? Even if it was Softdrink who (I assume) held up the ‘buy’ part of the deal. I paid shipping, so I’m counting it.
Anyway, this isn’t the point of this post.
My point, ahem, is that I want to give LIBRARY books to my friends! But they are due back at the library and so I don’t. Although, come to think of it, my bookish friend IS trustworthy enough that I could safely give my library book and know it will be turned back in on time.
So… what’s my point, again?
Hmmm. I was trying to rant about my issue that I am not supposed to write in, turn down pages, and generally KEEP library books. But I want to! but I also want to save money!
I have such a long list of books I want to read, and fear of failure holding me back on writing my reviews (uh, WHAT is THAT all about?!) and now On Chesil Beach is due. Occasion for Loving is due TODAY. (ooh, and it’s GOOD! I’m only on page 29.)
And, just wait til I go through all the vocab words from House of Meetings! Yep, I’m one of those: I write down words I don’t know or just don’t quite know or just want to learn more about and jot down what page it’s from and then… SOMETIMES… I actually go and look them up. later.
But I intend to; I do. This time, I will!
