Library Loot 2010-07
Submitted by Book Nut
Not too many books this week for a couple of reasons. 1) Hubby’s out of town, and I generally spend my nights catching up on bad romantic comedies that he won’t sit through, which means less time for reading. (Though I have The Vicar of Dibley: A Wholly Happy Ending coming from Netflix, which excites me to no end. Richard Armitage… sigh…) And 2) I’m seriously trying to catch up with the pile that I already have on my bedside table. Not to mention the ones piled up on my shelves. And it always seems that the library books get read first…
