In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren and is where we share the books we got through the week.
I've been on a book buying ban (three weeks of not buying anything!) but then I got the email for the last three days of Borders being open so I HAD to go. And I went crazy! But I only spent about $30, and got loads of books. So totally worth it!
Sorry about my little dude making noises. He's 'drilling' the chair. I was kind of ignoring it, but it's a bit annoying.

I'm joining you on your book buying ban!! I cannot spend more money on books. But I had a good time grabbing tons of books at Borders and I bet you did too. It's nearly impossible to pass up really good book deals, so I understand you grabbing a bunch. Great books too!
ReplyDelete*I literally laughed out loud when you showed the Theodora cover and attempted to censor the bum with your finger.
