Yes, I have broken the rules. I have been buying books even though I'm supposed to be packing them. I have been reading books that are not textbooks and then complaining my homework is not done.
I am hopeless...ly addicted to buying books. Sigh, I hope my grandma decides to give me a Barnes & Noble gift card for my birthday... simply for the excuse.
On a less guilty note: I finished reading River Secrets (Books of Bayern #3) by Shannon Hale. So good! I love her writing so much, I don't care if her books are for kids. I had to run out to buy Forest Born (Books of Bayern #4) as soon as I was done... oh, no, feeling guilty again... no wait, I'm not guilty! I donated a book to a needy child while I was there! I donated "Blubber" by Judy Blume, one of my favorites as a child and according to the American Library Association, a frequently challenged book! That balances everything out quite nicely if I do say so myself. So from then on, I pledged I will not buy another book until I have gotten settled in my new bedroom at G's mom's house and surveyed my bookshelf situation.
And then I checked my email yesterday morning and found a coupon for an extra 25% + my bn discount off any one book this weekend... Sometimes I think the world may be conspiring against me.
