I've been really into my reading at the moment, and also rather weirdly looking over to my various book storage areas on a regular basis. I've been almost drinking in watching the books that are patiently queueing for their turn to be read.
It's the time of year when you can quite legitimately grab a book and sit outside for a while in the warmth of the sunshine, when it decides to show it's face. The forecast for the next two weeks is for much better weather, so perhaps some more of my books will be joining me outside on the patio.
Maybe books need vitamin D too. 😁
Books as ornaments ... hell yes!!
These books haven't been touched for far too long, dusted yes, read no. I will remedy that at the weekend and take the first of the Helen Forrester's away with me. Tuppence to Cross the Mersey is one of my favourite books.
I often wonder which of my books I would choose if I had to pick just my favourite one hundred to keep and have to lose all of the others in some strange book disappearing calamity ... this would be among the ones kept for sure.
The Garden Cottage Diaries would also be on the list.
The last book I read, Chicken Boy was really good if you have an interest in chickens and has earnt it's place on the shelf ... if not on The Top One Hundred List.
I've read all but the Kate Humble book from this little decorative pile. Rather weirdly I don't even remember buying the Kate humble book!!
And that concludes a tour of all my living room books, I could count them I guess and see how many I actually own at the moment ...
... but I'm too busy reading to count. 😄
Could you choose your top 100 books and jettison all the others ... or do you not even own that many?
My eldest son owns one book ... is he even mine, while my younger son owns hundreds.
