winter_elfBecause I'll get one in email, then go wandering unsuspecting into a bookstore and get attacked by books! ARGH! I don't need more romances, really! I ended up with 4... lets see... 2 new Regencies with military men (whee!), a harlequin with green cover and a wolf (werewolf romance) and a harlequin called "Tall, Dark and Lethal".. Yea, I know you are all laughing yourselves silly about now. *sigh*

I keep remembering there *is* such a thing as a library...but it is so hard to get books back there on time and I love the thrill of a stack of new books by the bedside waiting to be read...

Date: 8 Jan 2009 01:26 (UTC)I got the Border's 40% off coupons and headed out to the store with my list, the coupon, my Border's card, and my gift cards, thinking, "Whoopee! Cheap books for no money!"
I couldn't believe it. All the books that are left on my list are special order (How can the new pirate anthology which has Naomi Novik's story be special order?) And I have so many here at home to read, I wasn't going to pick up just any old thing. And I think I may have finally gotten every one of Nora Robert's books published since about 1999. (Before then, they're not nearly as good.)
I actually walked around the store for 45 minutes looking for things on my list, trying to find some of the more obscure sections, looking up books on their computer. And I walked out of the store empty-handed!
I need to read some of the ones I already own anyway. (g)
