What books have you bought lately?
Nice haul there Veronica. My mom loved the orient express book. She loved the character Hercule Poirot. I can remember she would always talk about Agatha Christie and her characters. What the other? Was there a Miss Marple too?

..."Wow, impressive book haul you've got there, Veronica!!
WOOT! *Dustin this will make you happy* HEHE I got Black tonight of the Circle series by Ted Dekker. I just need Green and I am all set!
Holly might I suggest you start with his book Thr3e. It is soooo good. It will blow your mind. Has a great ending!
Thanks for the suggestion Janie. :-)The next time I'm able to get some books, I just might have to get it.
Hehe let me know if you do and how you like it. I want to do another read on it, i might get to that soon myself.
Just bought The Bachman Books
The Tales of Beedle the Bard
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
I have GoF already in the children's cover but whatever.
Altogether that bundle cost me £8
The paperback version of my Christian suspense novel
is currently on sale at Amazon for 22% off. Only 3 copies left...
Kit I loved the Exorcist, it was way better than the movie and had a lot more story to it, if that makes any sense. I will have to do a reread on that one soon. So I had a few bucks left of Amazon.com credit and I bought my wife and I Weird Things Customers Say in Bookshops. We both worked in a Barnes and Noble for a few years so this was a must for us. She read it and laughed so hard she was crying, I can't wait to read this.
Just got back from my favourite UBS. I picked up a nice first edition of The Tommyknockers, a paperback copy of Midwives, and The Child Thief by Brom. I'm so excited about the Brom book, I've been wanting to read it for years.

If you wanted to, you technically could start with Black, and go from there, since Green is the last book (it's my favorite of the series, BTW.)

I am still impressed. It's rare that I acquire so many books in two years, let alone 6 months..

Well it will probably take me two years to read them all...LOL. So no more book buying for me for a while.

Yeah, they'll definitely keep you busy for awhile! I hope you enjoy them all, Dan.
LOL Dan, now dont go jumping the gun there, you know you still need to buy books right? Even though you have anough for a couple of years?
Janie wrote: "LOL Dan, now dont go jumping the gun there, you know you still need to buy books right? Even though you have anough for a couple of years?"Oh yeah, Janie. I will still keep buying books. If you take a look at my page you'll see that my tbr shelf keeps growing.
I purchased two Harlan Coben books since these were highly recommended and I never read any of his books-
Gone for Good and
Tell No One. I also purchased The Tea Rose
for a group read. And lastly, I was given
Wolf Hall

I think all of our "to-read" shelves are constantly growing. I know mine is. What can I say, when I see a book that sounds promising or utterly amazing, I must add them. Otherwise, I'm apt to forget about countless books that have the potential to be great.. you know?
Dustin so true. I figure if I add them I will revisit my shelf and see all those books that marked tbr. It really helps.
Dan Mine too. I sold a completel shelf of books rthat I no longer wanted only to refill again in a matter of minutes.

There are a few books I have had on my to-read shelf for a year or too and I recently removed them because my interest has changed. I do like to add stuff that I have every intention of reading, but sometimes my taste just changes. I haven't officially bought this yet, but I pre-ordered The Kill Room. I can't wait to read this, I have been waiting for a new Lincoln Rhyme novel for 2 years. This way it will arrive the day it is released and I can get a first edition Hardback for Mr. Deaver to sign when he comes to town.
