I cracked you guys. I cracked! I went to the library to pick up 2 books that I had requested forever ago and this one was sitting on the shelf. It was sitting there looking lonely and I couldn’t help myself!
Lol – I always cave at the library when I go to pick up books I've requested … I can't help looking around, and I always leave with a book or 2 (or more) than I planned to. Hope you enjoy your reads this week 🙂

I have the same library problem! I want to read \”End of Your Life Book Club\” too but it also sounds kind of depressing …

I feel like I should be all supportive and \”You'll do better next time!\” with your library ban… and I kind of am. But mostly I feel, \”Ha! I'm not the only one in that boat!\”

I don't think it counts if you've gone to pick up books you'd requested before the ban 😉 Glad you're enjoying the book. Have a good Thanksgiving!

I've been trying to read my own books too, but cracked and went to the library tonight. It was fun to just browse and bring home some random books.
