Box of free books woohoo- oh and some other ramblings

I got a box of FREE books from freecycle today, I am so happy. The plan was to BookCross them but to be honest the pile on TBR is getting bigger and bigger. I am so happy, and obviously a very sad person for being so happy!

But something else weird today, not related to books I am afraid, went to get a joint account with OH for bills etc and it turned out the lady's niece is in my class at school. Lets hope she doesn't tell her that her teacher is a disorganised person with her finances who seems to move house every year! Argh!

I have that problem, too. I pick up books to BookCross them (or trade them for stuff on my wishlist at Cliff's) and ... toss them on Mt. TBR.

My resolution this year is to shrink the pile somewhat. So far, I'm doing it...

Free books are always loads of fun, even if they make the TBR piles more frightening, aren't they? :)

I just added a link to your blog. Thanks for linking to mine!

No problem bookfool!

Susan- That was my resolution this year, but unlike you I am failing miserably!

My piles of unread books are scary but it doesn't stop me from getting more :)

What is freecycle? I must look into this if it means free books! :)
