summer time reading

There are many reasons to love the summers. But let me tell you, at least, this summertime book worm found a cozy and inexpensive spot today to make some quality purchases that will last a lifetime. The Public Libraries of Central Arkansas filled the basement of the Main Library with all kinds of old books, classics and some, well, not so classics. I could have spend hours down there, looking and searching every shelf. I did, sorta.

I walked away with 10 books and I paid, guess, take a guess, I'll give you three:

1. $17
2. $11
3. $5

Did anyone guess $5! I was beside myself.

Not just any ole books, I choose some classics: Screwtape Letters by. C.S. Lewis, My Utmost for His Highest by Oswald Chambers, a Spanish Grammar book, and some book with Protestant Reformation writings. How fun! Maybe I'm a dork, but it's fabulous!

Thanks to the Libraries of Arkansas, my personal library is now 10 books larger. One day I want to have a huge room with all my books and one of those cool ladders like you see in the movies! :)

Now,
