Ten Book (or Reading) Related Problems I Have
1. Sometimes I bite my nails when I read.
2. I underline a lot and write all over my pages.
A mess |
3. I buy used books faster than I can read them.
4. It irks me when my 18-year old leaves his phone, watch, wallet,
and eye glasses on my bookcase. They are not part of my books.

5. I love my bookcase that my husband built for me, but it is just a bookcase,
and I must not treat it like it is another family member.

10. Most of the time, I'd rather be reading.
I get so excited about going to the library, too. Maybe a little bit too excited because there are so many books but not enough time to borrow and read all of them. And it really peeves me that my school library tempts me with all of these wonderful books but only allows me to borrow two at a time. Hmph.
ReplyDeleteWell, hopefully you can go to the library whenever you want (as soon as you finish your two books). When I was in elementary school, we were only allowed to go to the school library on Fridays. (But I used the public library, too, to get books, so it didn't matter.)
DeleteNice list of book related problems!! Lol, I rather read than exercise too. I love the bookcase your hubby built for you. Here's a link to my TTT for the week: http://captivatedreader.blogspot.com/2015/02/top-ten-tuesday-ten-book-related.html
ReplyDeleteThanks. Thanks!
DeleteI definitely get #8! I've tried to combine reading and exercise a few times, but it never seemed to work out for me.
ReplyDeleteYour bookcase is beautiful! I totally understand you wanting to keep it looking nice and neat. :)
I'm like: exercise for 30 minutes or read for 30 minutes. Reading usually wins.
DeleteThat bookshelf is amazing! Want one too.

Thanks!
DeleteThat book case! I love it! I have boring, el cheapo ones from Walmart and Target. Your husband does great work!
ReplyDeleteThanks. He had the nerve to tell me that he doesn't like literature, but he made up for it by building me a bookcase.
DeleteI have serious bookcase envy right now :)
ReplyDeleteWell, thanks, I think? It does serve its purpose. : )
DeleteHa, "I would rather read than exercise." Amen to that! :) And what a beautiful book shelf!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Arenda!
Delete3. I buy used books faster than I can read them.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't every passionate reader have this problem?
Yes, I think this is true.
