A Bookworm in a Bookstore

7/7/14

So there I was.
Perusing the aisles of the used bookstore, the one and only book I intended to buy already in hand.
When I stumbled upon the biographies and memoirs...

JULIA CHILD!
I read A Life in France last summer, and that lady is one of my favorite people ever now.
Yep, I'll grab that book too...

But then...

Along came the Literature section!
So many classics and books I've been wanting to ready for years!

So then, I grab a couple more.
I actually picked a few up and put them back down several times before making definite decisions.
Okay, I'm good, I thought.

... nope, not quite.

Religious section comes up.
Grabbed an old favorite and marched right up to the cashier not to turn back for fear of more books calling my name from the shelves.
And that folks, was my trip to the bookstore today.

What books are you currently reading and loving?

    1. I actually haven't seen the movie, but I will probably read it after I read the book.
