LFL: Bonanza!
Aug. 23rd, 2012 06:30 pmLittle Free Library: both the audio books (Eric Idle reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and some thriller) have left, as has The Complete Sherlock Holmes, vol II. I'm ridiculously pleased at successfully pimping Holmes, even though a battered Sign of Four is still in there.
The big surprise, though, was finding a baker's dozen of books sitting at the edge of my porch stairs. I think the 2011 Collector Car Price Guide is going straight to the Book Thing as being "not of general interest" -- I've also winnowed out the poetry magazine on account of discovering that it's got a 1999 date, which I figure is too old for a magazine. My LFL, my rules.
My reaction to Tree Whispering: A Nature Lover's Guide to Touching, Healing, and Communicating with Trees, Plants, and all of Nature can be summed up as O.o, but I'll put it and its workbook out sometime. Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol, though, went straight into the LFL. I also tossed in the unabridged White Fang audiobook that I was given by a co-worker.
The kittens are FASCINATED with the new books, not just avidly sniffing them, but licking at them. They must have come from a house with pets.
As I think I need to restart the Sunday 7, I'm giving myself a challenge to take a book out of my personal library once a week, simply because the place is bursting at the seams. I won't force myself to give up books it hurts to think of not having, but it may help me ease some that are around "just because" out of my life. (Especially as I don't think that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tchwrtr or faireraven are particularly interested in me flushing all my kids' books on them again!)
Now I have to go find somewhere to keep 2778's stock, because the little basket in the living room is officially Far Too Small.
