books are my friends
i just went to b&n dot com and ordered Wings and Spells used in hardcover. i really am trying to just borrow books from work or buy them on my Nook (and eventually borrow them from the library *on* my Nook, just need to figure that out) so i can save money. also we really don't need anymore books around the house. but, like i say to people when i am selling the Nook, there are still some things i will have to buy to physically put on my shelves. i always say, "sometimes if you have a favorite series that you started buying some time ago you're going to really want to complete the set." well i never bought the Laurel series, i borrowed it. but i do think at some point i'd read it again and i'd just like to have it on my shelf as part of my library. so often i think of my books as friends. i have so many that i've read numerous times, either cover to cover, or just a part that i will be reminded of and take it down to remember again.
this is part of why i like the feature of "naming" your Nook. it makes it personable, so i don't feel like i'm cheating. and i can feel like, "i've got Kittie, and Kittie has all my books (puts in purse), come on Kittie, lets go."
btw, i'm not totally weird and random for naming my Nook Kittie. that's what Anne Frank named her diary. though i don't think it was spelled the same.
i also ordered Kittens First Full Moon, which was a Caldecott winner. the illustrations really remind me of Bowie. i got it used *and* cheap, so that if i chose to cut out and frame some of the pictures i don't have to feel guilty.
i can't wait until they arrive.
