message 318: by Nancy from NJ (new)

Katz Nancy from NJ (nancyk18) I decided to declutter my books if I owned a copy of a book and so did my public library. With that in mind, I have sorted through and donated 123 books from my shelves in the past 2 weeks. I've moved every book out of my hall shelves and now I have set my sights on my office and bedroom.

That really sounds great but I am exactly the opposite. If I have to wait too long on a hold line, I buy the book. If it's a real old favorite and I don't have it, I buy the book. And finally if for no other reason than I want it, I buy the book.

Tara (ptaradactyl816) | 271 comments I finished my 3rd book of the challenge (2nd physical book). The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Steig Larsson. Could not put it down!!! So good. I have the next 2 books in the millennium series on my physical shelf also. They have been there for a very long time and a very close friend asked me to buddy read them with her in the winter reading challenge at our local library. Love it that I am completing 2 challenges at once. I have to take a break for a few days before I start The Girl Who Played With Fire. Very intense reading!
