ilovebakedgoods (Teresa) (ilovebakedgoods) Oh, how I wish we had no limit or at least higher than 10 per account! I often steal a few slots from my son and husband but my husband always gives me grief for how many books I have out. He doesn't understand, LOL! He reads one book at a time and it takes him a long time to read because he's just not as fast as I am. He can't relate to my NEED to have so many books out because what if my mood dictates starting three different genres in one day?? And what if I don't have a book in my possession when the whim to read it strikes?? The horrors of having to try to check it out only to find out it's already out or there's a long hold list or something.

Speaking of putting books on hold... sometimes I can't decide what's more fun - putting a bunch on hold or bringing a bunch home. I mean, obviously one of them has instant gratification but just the *anticipation* of what's to come when you put a bunch on hold is enough to make me giddy, lol. And then the phone call or email letting me know my hold(s) are in!! Heaven, LOL!!

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments LOL! I think I love going to the library and just starting a huge pile off of the shelves but I also love making holds because of the convenience. I love it! (:

I usually go to different libraries 3 times a week!
