We spent the weekend tidying up our little rental cottage and getting ready to move again.
‘Gosh,’ said DorkyDad. ‘I seem to have acquired quite a few books since we got here…‘
‘Crikey,’ I said, as I gathered together my own pile. ‘So have I. It’s only been seven weeks. I’m not sure how that happened.‘
And then we got onto sorting out DorkySon’s stuff. And we both felt a bit better about our own book addictions.
Wow. That boy should be banned from Fuller’s!
our house is exactly like that, the kids books take over! but i cant bear to get rid of some of their books, im so attached to them!
A very familiar sight. May have zoomed in to read the titles in your pile and added one or two to my list 😉
So familiar! We have books coming out of our ears!
Re-phrase that? That boy has a seriously good habit that will give him joy throughout his life?
That’s exactly it. I’m proud of him 🙂
A house without books, isn’t a home!
That boy has good genes, I particularly admire his choice of the book 3rd from the top, and also the one 3rd from the bottom 🙂
Thinking of you lots today – I received an order from Hobart and have been singing along to my Ladyhawke CD – a definite Southern Hemisphere vibe on Benbecula today!
Did you enjoy Burial Rites? I found it so compelling and atmospheric!
But it’s the best addicition there is surely? 😀
We had to buy new bigger bookcases for mini’s room this week
LOL…. I love this post – a family in books. That’s so imaginative. How are you finding Donna Tartt’s new tome? I can’t wait until we do the building work on our home and have proper bookshelves fitted, I love a good bookshelf. X
