Although, by some amazing coincidence, since I've started that policy, I've somehow <i>never</i> read less than ten books. :)<br /><br />I have to admit, I accidentally acquired thirteen last month, but that wasn't my fault! Well, mostly not my fault...<br /><br />Does that make you feel any better? :)Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06403255764384760662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432116.post-60999601825313260082009-12-03T04:53:01.357-07:002009-12-03T04:53:01.357-07:00Out of interest, how many books *do* you allow you...Out of interest, how many books *do* you allow yourself to buy in a month?

I've already sort of cheated by buying more books than usual recently.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00277636954260900156noreply@blogger.com
