Tooting my library again

Yes we all know I LOVE books and I LOVE my library even more! I have never in all my life had so many books I really want to read, my list is growing very long indeed. Having just laughed my way through "Sleeping Around" and eagerly anticipating the final book of the Twilight series, my library has once again thrown more books on my reading path that I cannot fail to inspect. See, my library sends me monthly emails of "recommended reading" and with a click of a button, I am free to order and be notified of books of various genres. How can I not be curious to see what some intriguing titles may be about. I always think that I wont read it but once again I get sucked in. This latest one I was most definitely attracted to the cover (isn't it wonderful) and I was lucky enough to be the first to borrow it - I even love the SMELL of books .... mmmmmm. I am like a child hugging it to my chest thinking me the luckiest girl in the whole world.

What I really wanted to share with you is the quote from the back cover:

"If only life was like a book ... in that everything made sense and you know all will be resolved in the end. If only life was like a book so that, if you decided you didn't like it, you could take it back and get another".

Happy reading this weekend!

Oh Helen, you are such a bookworm :-) Where do you find all the time to read. I wanted to sit this afternoon for a while in the sun with my book. Kylian went playing, Roland went off with a friend, and Kayleigh took Keanu to the playground. When I finally sat down and read one chapter, Kayleigh and Keanu came back, and my peaceful afternoon was over.
