And I'm lucky my boss isn't in the house yet this morning, because I actually had to laugh out loud at the Figment pic and caption ;).<br />So those Everests-like piles are the books you managed to take home? Oh my gosh. And not counting the duplicates. I hope you're a fast reader! Maybe you are in the mood for sharing all the titles (some are unrecognizable) so that we (err, I) can look them up? ;) Thanks!<br />It's great that your hubby not only shares your passion, but is also actively involved in it.Roberta R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18228840429799100354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-48778768555407057322013-06-11T01:27:11.312-04:002013-06-11T01:27:11.312-04:00All the books!
