… yeah, it’s gonna take two pictures again. Sigh. I’ve got two weeks off coming, I can tighten this up. I swear.
One book in one of those pictures was bought out of spite. See if you can guess which one! Your hint is that it’s new this month, but unfortunately there are a lot of those.
But hey, at least it all fits on one shelf this time!
Hahahaha lol nope:
“That’s not that bad,” you might be thinking. “Didn’t you say yesterday that your unread shelf was going to be unprecedented and absolutely ridiculous?”
Yes, I said that. Look closer.
“I mean, it’s interesting that those are all hardbacks. And it’s weird that they’re all the same size. But a bunch of them are new … wait.”
Sigh.
I’m never getting caught up.
I swear to God I read books this month, and I also swear to God that end-of-summer book sales are the bane of my existence.
Did I rearrange this shelf hoping to hide the fact that there are more books on it than there were last month?
…maybe. I might have done that.
Pretty sure this is the lightest the shelf has been in months (EDIT: It’s been a year.) I can make a significant dent in this next month if I’m disciplined about not spending a ton of money. LOL.
Tomorrow’s Monthly Reads is going to be insane.
Picking on church billboards is such low hanging fruit that it’s not even worth it most of the time, but I drove past this … message on my way home today, and I needed to preserve it. I may have the verbs slightly wrong (I was driving, after all) but the weird part is preserved correctly:
Trust in The Lord
Delight in “
Commit to “
… with fucking quotation marks, just like that. The quotation marks were red, though.
I will never understand Christians.
(EDIT: Now featuring the correct phrasing.)
Gotta get this up early, because there may or may not be like six new books showing up today.
A little better than last month? At least there are no books in front of books. Man, I need to do nothing but read this summer.
