Follow Friday - January 6th


This is my first time participating in the Follow Friday Blog Hop hosted by Parajunkee & Alison Can Read.

Question this week: Go count the number of unread books on your shelf. How many?

I'd be lying if I said this question didn't make me a little nervous because at times I feel like unread books are taking over my home.

My total: 291 

Not bad or am I guilty of book gluttony (feel free to lie to make me feel better)? I actually expected the total to be much higher. That total includes a borrowed book and some MG novels I picked up for my son, but wouldn't mind reading. & honestly you can never have too many books or at least that is what I keep telling myself :)

While you're here check out the giveaway I'm hosting for a copy of Dragon's Keep and Dragonswood by Janet Lee Carey.

    I daren't count mine! I have a lot of unread books around the house. It's nice to know I am not alone. Last week I finally got around to reading one that had been shuffled from four houses over ten years, and finally read it. Then of course I kicked myself because it was a great read and I'd wished I'd read it sooner. The problem is that I also have relatives that send me cool reads so I'm always plowing through a pile. Good luch with your catch up :). Hag s, Sally xxx

    Lol. You are totally right. There's no such things as too much books. That's what I keep telling myself too. :) Already a follower, but happy friday!

    You included borrowed books? You're good. I went with the literal interpretation and only gave them the number on my shelf. I didn't count anything else, not even eBooks haha!

    Hopping through. I agree that you can never have enough books. I hope to buy a lot more some day soon.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog! I'm somewhat close to your number too, but like you I also think we can't ever have enough books! Happy reading!
