So why do I say that I’m a book addict? Well, I also like to read, yes. But I hardly read fast enough to keep up with all the books I accumulate. I have probably 30 or more books that I haven’t read yet already sitting on my bookshelf waiting for me, and yet I’ve added more.

I went to the Katy Budget Books semi-annual sale after work yesterday, and needed to be rescued. I got stranded in the mystery/thriller department, as you can imagine heh. They had boxes and boxes of books on the floor that were on sale, all for $1 or less (the $1 was for the hardback, and I only get paperback). Hubby called me on his way home from his late class and I was still there. Then he called me when he got home, and I was finally trying to get to the line so I would stop looking around. I tried hard to only stick to authors I’ve read before or at least have heard a lot about. Even so, I ended up with 24 books. And the grand total was $15. OMG!

Then, I signed up for a bajillion book giveaway contest thingers. I found this great list of giveaways for the month of October on the Layers of Thought book blog. Right now they’re doing a giveaway for my friend Nicole’s book Release. Right now it’s only available as an e-book, but soon it will be in print too. It’s about vampires So if interested in the giveaway, go check it out.

I’ve been doing some book clubs lately and that’s been helping me ramp up in my reading. Right now I’m attempting to be a semi-active member in two different book clubs, but seems like I’ve been doing alternating months since I can’t find the time to read more than one book per month. But maybe soon.
