When I buy books, I always buy them at our local indie. I had hoped to make it there Saturday but wasn’t able to. I really want to read The Wright Brothers.

I LOVE discovering new independent bookstores! I have a rule that I try to never leave one without buying at least one book to support their business. Usually the problem is keeping myself from buying too many.

In reply to kimbacaffeinate. Getting Lost in the book store is the right way to put it! I know what you mean. I just fear when I take too much home.

In reply to JoAnn @ Lakeside Musing. Yeah JoAnn, I 'd like to read the Thomas Hardy book too. I don't know too much about that one. But not sure if I will see the film first or read the book.

I missed Independent Bookstore Day, but maybe I can make up for it next Sunday for Mother’s Day! Looking forward to seeing Far From the Madding Crowd. It didn’t open here last weekend, but will come to our local arts cinema before too long. Hopefully I’ll have a chance to read the book beforehand.

In reply to Erin @ Paperbackstash. Very cool Erin. You gave me some ideas. Man I need to get Pat Conroy's Writing Life book. Thanks for reminding me about this one, & for stopping by!

In reply to Anne. Yeah I think I've been to that bookstore in Bellingham -- that is a good one! I sympathize with those whose indie bookstores are too far away. ugh, that's tough.

In reply to Molly. Wow 18 bags of books to the library. That's good Molly. I wish I could purge like that. So far, I have one box of books that I'm taking to a book sale this month. Many of them were duplicates in my shelves yikes! I hear ya on Mumford & Sons. I hope the new release is good.

In reply to Laurel-Rain Snow. Ha Laurel: I had to laugh that you were bored by Atkinson's Life After Life. Funny. Too many lives maybe, or deaths. I haven't read it. But I enjoyed some of her Brodie detective novels that she used to write. Now those were pretty good. If you win the lotto, you can always open an indie bookstore in your neck of the woods. You'd have a monopoly there. :-)
