I hope you enjoyed Disney on Ice! That sounds like fun. NetGalley is my bane. I really need to stay away . . . I really want to read Sylvain Neuvel's books. I have them. I just need to read them now.

I had never read a Lisa Kleypas book before, but I'm really enjoying her style of writing. <br /><br />Getting to put your books on a shelf and organizing it is such a satisfying feeling. I had to take my down to pack them up because of my upcoming move. :(<br /><br />Hope you have a great week! ~AleenAleen ~ Lampshade Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992681803294866098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2875242362336197892.post-78405353702973652212018-02-05T20:04:29.557-06:002018-02-05T20:04:29.557-06:00I might be getting a bit old for these shows.

I don't have a paid membership. The books that I send are always in great shape and I haven't had any complaints about the books that I have received in return. All of the used books stores in my area that I used to go to are gone. I have seen one or two may be back in the area but I haven't been to one in years.

I let my membership lapse because I was sending nearly new books and getting crap books in return and I had a few bad experiences last year with complaints about MP3 audio's (even though it was clearly stated in the description that that's what they were). I've been going back and forth on whether or not I'll return but I'm leaning on not. I'm enjoying my local UBS again but the pickings are slim sometimes.<br /><br />Have a great week!Bark At The Ghoulshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201971932093705929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2875242362336197892.post-21066610927251028972018-02-05T05:58:06.495-06:002018-02-05T05:58:06.495-06:00You're never too old for Disney!

We did keep the cat stuff in the room so some space opened up when we donated everything to a rescue group after her death. I haven't read the new Kleypas series yet either but the publisher says that this new one is fine as a stand alone.
