I'm growing fonder and fonder of my e-reader (nook), and one of its many appealing aspects is the fact that it doesn't take up as much space as the shelves and shelves which are bursting in my home. :)Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-72014081016726114312011-10-03T20:55:34.260-04:002011-10-03T20:55:34.260-04:00Wow, you got rid of 50 books!

My problem is that I move the books off the shelves, but then they sit in piles in my office, waiting to be entered onto half.com. The ones that still have a decent value, I try to resell, then the rest go to the library book sale...that's the plan, but it's hard to keep up with so they pile up! I should just go straight to donating.

I love a good mystery! Only two books arrived at my house this week by mail as well and three left via pass alongs. I have a box full to donate to the library but haven't made the trip yet. I don't think I could ever only go to eBooks. I love the paper ones too much. The feel, the smell. And I can't share my eBooks with my friends. Wrapping up a book to give as a gift is one of my greatest pleasures.RobinfromCAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15991684488709559707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-21398041305711124352011-10-03T14:18:27.134-04:002011-10-03T14:18:27.134-04:00Rita Dove once spoke to my lit class in college an...Rita Dove once spoke to my lit class in college and I got her to sign her book of poems, Thomas and Beulah.

It sounds like you're actually trying to clear books out and switch over to e-books mostly. Much less dust and lots more room for other things!<br /><br />The Goat Women sounds like an intriguing story and I love that its set in Jamaica.<br /><br />The Poetry Anthology interests me, too.
