Just walked out of the library empty handed. This is a first!
Geez! Running a temperature?
Nothing caught my eye.
No way!
Thanks for the reminder, I need to go to the library today
Sometimes I don’t find anything. I am always suspicious of new comers from unknown authors
What does it cost you to try? Just curious.
I don’t like YA. And I am a boring kind. It’s me, you know. So I stuck to some authors and find a lot of difficulties to choose a new one
Go for the gusto, be courageous, try a new adventure. take the leap, try anything, it is all free (library right?) You may find a whole new world out there, if it is free and isn’t a huge deal to get there and you are able to NOT HAVE to finish a book you don’t like, try an audio, not much in life is free use it, abuse it. just my humble opinion, lol
@Nettie hahahah tried dear. Didn’t work for me. As older as boring I become ?
ok…. I doubt you are boring people who read I find are never boring, great name by the way
@Nettie hahaha thanks dear. Yeah.. after knowing the meaning I loved my name?
@Elvia Oh please tell me what does it mean.
@Nettie it means the Queen of the Elves, favorite among them and Guiding Star.
@Elvia Great Meaning, very magical
@Nettie yeah ❤
WHY?
Did you forget your books!?
WHY!!!??
Was someone rushing you?
Probably that’s it
oh i am so sorry… for the loss of yur mind??? really? not one single one???
Are you ill?
I made it up for you I took out 5 books yesterday.
Are they closed? This is almost sacrilege. ??
I applaud your self-discipline. Even when I go in to return books, swearing that I won’t even glance in the direction of the shelves (on another floor), I somehow always manage to come out with books.

I walked out with the six that came in at the same time. They’re all due in two weeks. ?
I’m on the bus to the library today in San Antonio!
I wouldn’t be able to do it! Even if I’m “just going to return something” I get sucked in looking at the “new” section and the staff picks.
I do that often simply because my library is a small off branch of many branches so the don’t have a great selection. I request books from the other branches to put on hold and sent to my branch.
Who does that??!!
Have you taken your temperature?
But, like, how long were you there for? ?
How did you manage to do that? ?
Wait. What?
I should say that I am currently reading Still Life by Louise Penny and listening to Two by Two from Nicholas Sparks. I am on vacation the first week in October and was trying to put a pile together for my down time.
Doesn’t happen often but when it does I’m so sad.
Oh No!!
My local library does not have the largest selection and often the books I want are out. This is frustrating, especially when I am down to my b or c list of authors. I have lists, Man Booker, PEN Faulkner, The Great American Read, Good Reads, …. , about 300 hundred books and authors. Still there are times when I just can not find what I want and settle on one of my go to authors that are well represented in my library. Wish me luck on Monday when I look for a new book.
Are you OK?! ?
No this could not be. How do you feel? Books are a drug. You didn’t get your fix.
Our new book shelf is downstairs and fiction is up stairs so I often leave without a print book because I look at the new additions. I must admit I mainly read ebooks so this doesn’t mean a lot!
Are you OK?? Did someone force you out?? Those are the only things I can think of l that would keep one from bringing home the legal maximum!
That would never happen.
Enjoy your vacation
How could that happen?!
Amnesia. That must explain it.
No way could I do that.
Gah!!!
Nooooooo ??????
Good discernment!
our library has lost its best and last ILL librarian extraordinaire! time to look for another library ?
It’s because you’ve read them all!!!! ??????
Don’t worry, there’s still your online digital library! (Ebooks, audiobooks, magazines, and videos!)
Are you feeling ok?
It happened to me last week. I went to the second hand bookstore and bought a few things but no books! Was a first for me ??♀️
That’s my favorite place to shop for books
@Denise same
This isn’t normal or healthy. You might want to discuss with your GP!
Before inter library loan, when you spent an hour looking at books never knowing if you would get some or not. Now every time I go to library there are books waiting for me. I never go into the aisles anymore
I do the same thing.
Me too. I only do if I’m blowing time there waiting on my kids.
But did you put something on hold?
Hard to believe. You found nothing that tempted you? Amazing!
It has happened to me. I just wasn’t in the mood for anything.
