a friend dropped by for a visit on Saturday morning and brought me a few books…
a bit later my housemate and I went to Globosapiens to pick up some additional books… this time I chose some new releases as well as some of the authors I usually read…
the Halloween decorations had filled up most of the stairs as there were very few books left to read…
I took this (⬆️) photo on November 1st before the decorations came down…
now, the stair library is booming once again;-)… woohoo… I haven’t been enjoying the current read, so may just put that one aside and start on one of these;-)…

it was mainly overcast and rainy last Thursday, so I spent most of the day inside…
being as the weather was not so great, I decided to work on a project that has been on the list for a while, lol…
first I printed out a list of JD Robb books that I found online…
next I removed all of the books I have and set them on my desk…
I cut some coloured paper to use as markers and compared the list with my books and inserted a sheet of paper where the missing books belonged… I also checked off which books were still needed…
the books went back onto the shelf and I then prepared a spreadsheet listing the whole series and marking which books I still need to complete my set…
happy to get the project completed…
now to send the list off to a friend and Globosapiens bookstore to see how many more we can find;-)…
once I find the remainder, there will need to be some reorganizing of the shelves, as I still need around nineteen, lol…

finally made it to GLOBOsapiens Used Bookstore, as a number of friends had told me about it…
took a box full of books that I had read, which have been rattling around in the trunk for weeks, and came home with a box full of books that I have been looking for…
they only take cash and luckily I had some on me… and, because I brought books in, most of the ones I purchased were half price…
I’ve been looking for the JD Robb In Death series for quite some time so was thrilled when I found twenty to add to my library woohoo…
now to add them to my list so I know which ones I have and which ones I still need;-)… and figure out where they are going to go…
