the top book i'm in the middle of reading, the other 4 are the new ones i bought :) i'm still into true crime, as you can see! but i've heard good things about chelsea handler books, so i threw one in!
i just finished the last one, and i would like to get one more in before i start school next monday. because when school hits, my leisure reading takes a deep nose dive and i'm consumed in texts and court cases.
what i love is that me and dylan both have a love for books. i don't think i could ever go the e-reader route. we've both built up quite a library of books (me-mostly true crime, fashion and some girly ones; him-religion, environmental and other that are way beyond my intellectual capacity ha) and we never turn down an opportunity to visit a (preferably used) book store. heck, we went to nyc in the summer for books! well, bookstores...
books, ftw!
& total coincidence too that the last few days everyone seems to have written posts about books; i've had this written since the beginning of the week -not a copy cat, promise ;)
I looove getting new books!
ReplyDeletehaha I know it's like everyone thought of books at the same time!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could ask you to borrow them (dang) but those killer books sound interesting. Also - jealous of your bargaining with the vouchers and discounts! Sounds like you handled it like a pro!!

I love an actual book - I just don't want an e-reader! I look at the computer screen ALL DAY and don't want to look at a screen to read... and there is something wonderful about reading a good book and seeing how far into it you are.
ReplyDeleteAlso in total agreement re: e-books. I love LIVE books lol And it's just another piece of technology that I have to worry about keeping safe lol
ReplyDeleteI always go to the Starbucks in indigo for work coffee (even though it's further) just to look at what they've got, but I'm a library kinda girl. I don't really want to buy books until I have a legit home and a permanent place to store them - like my own personal library! :D
Oh, and the Chelsea Handler books are hilarrr! I have yet to read the 3rd one (Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang) but I heard more good reviews :) Let me know what you think!
i used to be obssesed with true crime books and all those kinds of stories.
ReplyDeletei love the chelsea handler books! she is too funny! you will enjoy it ;)
:) CHelsea is my home girl! I love her! :)))
ReplyDeleteI love that you guys share a love for books! I think thats important! I could never be with a guy who didnt like to read! i Have this fantasy of being with a guy laying in bed, reading...
is that ridiculous?
I didn't think so :)
Oh my gosh. I work at a bookstore and the amount of money I spend on them now! (Though it's a remainder bookstore so they're all super cheap! You should see if there's any in your area :D)
ReplyDeleteI have 2 stacks of books-in-waiting on my desk...that i bought in the past month. Oops.

p.s found your blog through 'love,zsara''s blog :)
So jealous! I love books and LOVE Chelsea. Have you read all of her memoirs? I just got my sister Are You There Vodka? Also love her show for it's celebrity gossip, haha. I love chai tea lattes and coffee too!! I just got the chai tea latte concentrate from the grocery store and make them at home all the time now.
ReplyDeleteExcited to be a new follower. Your blog is beautiful and fun :)
I hope you find the Chelsea Handler book to be quite hilarious, and if you find you're oddly amused by that humor you must read I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell by Tucker Max. It's deeply disturbing and extremely unmoral but def. one of the most hilarious books I have ever read.
ReplyDeleteAnd I too was extremely against the e-reader because of my love for book collections....but, I exchanged a birthday gift for one since it wouldn't cost me anything and I love it!!
Happy reading!
I LOVE Chelsea Handler's books. I am on her latest one. Sometimes I laugh so hard that I cry reading her crazy stories! Enjoy!!
