Discussion Point – The 10 Commandment of The TBR Pile…..

Hello team….

I am rushed off my feet today and did not invest the time in putting together a post for today's Discussion Point…  I am spoilt for choice of stuff to talk about though, so look out for some great topics in the coming weeks…

But, Today I am resurrecting one of my old post so you all can either take part on this post or you can do your own thing on your blog…. Makes sure you come back and let me know if you do….

Enjoy…

 

1. Thou shalt not buy discounted books from the bargain bin. This path can only lead to regret.

              Been there, done that -  already – and so not regretting it.

2. Thou shalt not buy the next two books in a series when thou has not yet read book one.

             Why not, they might not be there when I go back.

3. Thou shall give away a book if thou has already tried to read it three times on three separate occasions.

             No it’s mine and I shall never give it away …… I might read it - eventually..

4. Thou shall keep a thorough record of all books thou owns so to avoid the dreaded and oft-embarrassing double-up.

             We do try, but it’s a path we all MUST go down, before we learn.

5. Thou shalt covet thy neighbours books. Thou shalt also covet thy best friend's, mother's, daughter's and thy library's books.

             Every damn chance I get – you do realise I am spending more and more time at the neighbours.

6. Thou shalt not attend charity book sales without a plan. A good plan.

             Yeaaaaah – riggggght,  just like going to the supermarket with a 6yrs old and a shopping list – see how far that gets you.     

7. Thou shalt not borrow books from others unless thou desperately wants to read them.

            You do see how desperate I am – Every time – All the time

8. Thou shalt not buy books just because thou likes the covers.

             Have you seen the covers on some of these books – if all else fail I'll just look at the cover – My monies worth.

9. Thou shalt not re-buy already owned books just so the covers and sizes match.

            Who the hell does that – Oh sorry, I am forgetting my number one sin – UK covers of so many author I love – need I say more.

10. THOU SHALL NOT BUY MORE BOOKS THAN THOU CAN READ!

            WHAT WORLD ARE YOU LIVING IN – WHO THE HELL CAME UP WITH THIS…….
