Whore for Books!

I'm a nutter for books! Spending time at Barnes and Noble is one of my fav things to do, however, I have this problem. I am trying to save money and a long time ago I noticed I was spending money on books and not reading them. I have since then started visiting the library.

D loves the library, they have toys, puzzles, doll houses, and lots of fun stuff for kids. My favorite things are the free books, and the friends of the library section where you can buy paperback books for either one to three dollars, old magazines are twenty-five cents, kids books are also twenty-five cents! So really I can have a book/magazine/children book shopping spree!

These are the books that I snagged for under $20 with the magazines and children books~

Books to me are like an unexplored territory and act as medals won for conquering the pages that are shown off under my tv. I like chick lit. Lately I have read other genre's like Dan Brown novels and Dean Koontz.


My boyfriend doesn't understand my love of books. I think it comes from spending time with my cousin Anna when I first moved to Florida. She was older, had a part time job at a book store, had a cute boyfriend, and was happy, everything I wanted to have. I thought she was so cool!

In her bed room she had this beautiful wood bookcase with glass doors which showed off all her novels. She is an Anne Rice fan, an auther I have never attempted to read but at least I can find a good book amongst many because all of the books I read are usually pink, purple, have a cool cover.

I really recommend calling your local library to see if they have a section for selling books and magazines. It is definently better than spending $13 to $18 on a novel. The magazines I love! I also noticed a while ago that I was spending way too much on magazines every month. I'm a magazine whore! Especially about health or gossip, like People and Self.
