Our Library Visit For August

Thursday, August 22, 2013

 Hello Everyone! How are you on this fine Thursday? I'm doing just fine. :) Today is my mom's birthday, and in honor of that we decided to go to our local library and then brought home two bagel sandwiches and a box of donuts from Dunkin' Doughnuts for lunch.  We came away with three overflowing bags of books - pretty good, considering the last time we went to the library was only two months ago, in June. :) Surprisingly, both my mom and I seem to have gone to the library every two months this year! :)

We had a wonderful time together - as we always do! It has become something of a birthday tradition for me - and apparently now for mom as well. We spent about an hour and a half at the library - from about 11:30 A. M. to 1 P. M.

Between us, we bought 12 hardcovers, 27 paperbacks as well as 2 oversized paperbacks. We spent a whopping $30 for a total of 41 books. A pretty good haul, if I do say so, myself. :)

At the moment, I'm reading If It's Broken, Don't Fix It: A Candid Look at Our Complacent Education System by Sinhue Noriega, which is quite interesting reading, so far. At page 128, I'm deep into Chapter 6 and should be finished reading the book very soon. I'm also reading Keeper of Reign by Emma Right - a young adult fantasy that I hope to be finished reading as well. I'm planning to put up a review of Keeper of Reign by tomorrow.

May you read well and often
