Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 4782 comments Just clicked that there button on Amazon again! Betterworldbooks didn't have a couple I needed. I was at the grocery store today and refrained from buying anything and now I've blown it!

Miss Wonderful (Carsington Brothers, #1) by Loretta Chase I Do, I Do, I Do by Maggie Osborne


message 656: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (melaina) | 638 comments Lisa Kay - Loretta Chase is awesome, and so funny (the best in the Carsington series is Mr Impossible IMO)! Have you read any other books by her? Definitely read Lord of Scoundrels if you haven't yet!!

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 4782 comments Melanie, I read both Lord of Scoundrels (Scoundrels, #3) by Loretta Chase Lord Perfect (Carsington Brothers, #3) by Loretta Chase . Both excellent! Looking forward to reading Mr. Impossible (Carsington Brothers, #2) by Loretta Chase to complete a challenge this month.

Bekah (bekah317) | 2750 comments Make sure you read Three To Get Deadly (Stephanie Plum, #3) by Janet Evanovich - I can't remember which book it is that really made me die laughing but it's one of the first three!

Lol Bekah!
I've been a little worried about reading the Stephanie Plum books.. I'm not a huge fan of love triangles, but it doesn't seem like the first couple books have the triangle!

Bekah (bekah317) | 2750 comments no, they dont. But one of them is pee your pants funny! Stephanie's luck with cars is just RIDICULOUS!

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments If anyone wants a free, erotic, emotional read, check out Comfort Food by Kitty Thomas

http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/...

It gets great reviews, I haven't read it yet, but I hear it's very dark in places.


message 670: by Shelly (new)

Shelly (shellye77) I think I may have to join this, but like a true addict, I'm in denial. Hit B&N today for a total of 7. Yesterday got 2 in the mail from PBS. Monday got a box in the mail from Amazon. But no, I don't have a problem. . . I swear I don't. . . Audiobooks don't count either, do they, because technically I don't buy but 1 a month from Audible, the rest I get from my library. . . nope, no addiction here, no ma'am!

But I did sneak in my boxes and unwrap them.. **happy sigh**


message 680: by E. (new)

E. (dilawrosas) | 507 comments I have WAY too many bks. It doesn't help that my library bookstore had gotten a shipment from another library, in which that library has "deselected" some bks and those same "deselected" bks are now available to buy in the library bookstore.

So. Many. Books.

SO.

MANY.

BOOKS.

I'm still not buying! I'm being a good girl.

I've decided that if I don't buy my allotment in April, I can carry it over through the year.

message 695: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 4782 comments Melanie, I know. **sigh** A few books were just dribbling through and then, all of a sudden, I just went a little crazy; like in the old days. God, I love the SMELL of new books, even!


message 696: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (melaina) | 638 comments And what great books they are:-D Love the smell as well!


message 697: by Laura (new)

Laura (filoviridae) | 783 comments I don't know that this really goes in this thread since I didn't have to plunk down any money, but my mom is going through her books and let me pick through her cast-offs...I came home with around two dozen more books. And that was just the first two boxes she had ready to go...I get to go back to go through more. Hoorah!


message 698: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 4782 comments I totally set myself up yesterday when I went to the bookstore. I mean the clerk did tell me I could order the desired book, which was not there, over the phone for faster delivery. I just wanted to GO TO THE BOOKSTORE. And I knew what would happen!

Laura, That's a tough one to answer. I don't think it is a problem unless you have a space issue in your home. But then, I may be bias.
