  1. I’m so impressed that you COUNTED your books!!! And could!


  2. LOL
    I counted ONE shelf on my book shelf and multiplied by how many book shelves I have. (since all my books selves are the same.


  3. Jeez I must have about that many books too, WOW…some are hubbys, we read a lot of library books too.
    Just finished a book I bought from the discard table, by Canadian author CJ Carmicheal, A Daughter’s Place it is set in a fictional town just out of Yorkton, Sask. I love when Canadian authors set their books here in Canada…I was in Canmore when I read one of her books set there.


  4. I so too. I set mine in Canadian towns and cities too. Gypsy Heart is set in Edmonton! I even gave them a date at Klondike Days!! :D


  5. The last book I read was
    Nerd in Shining Armour by
    Vicki Lewis Thompson.
    Good for some laughs.


  6. Too lazy to count, too many books to pick 5 favorites…
    Last book I bought: Personal Assets by Emma Holly.

  7. I thought I posted, but maybe I forgot, I do that, you know. Anyway, you got me thinking about my own answers, which I cheated and blogged about, having no idea that I’d have an actual topic later in the day.

    In short, my answers are:
    1. Well over a thousand
    2. Um, I bought several
    3. My previous answer was also several, however, I just got done reading The Mistress of Trevelyan by Jennifer St. Giles, and it was AWESOME.


  8. Last book I read: Lord of the Rings- Fellowship of the Ring (for the second time)


  9. I haven’t thought about The Outsiders in a long time but man I loved that book.
