A friend of ours recently sent two boxes of books to India on the day she was flying - having made arrangements in advance, we took the boxes to a warehouse near Heathrow, and the cost was around £60.<BR/>I also have far too many books in my TBR pile, but I like encouraging my favourite bloggers by buying their books.pierre lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01371090008924140199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-63397428544196243982008-07-25T19:30:00.000+07:002008-07-25T19:30:00.000+07:00I am exactly the same when I return to the UK I al...I am exactly the same when I return to the UK I always fill up my suitcase with books! It made sense when we lived in Mexico but now we're in the US with access to B&N and Amazon, I still do it though!<BR/><BR/>Enjoy your books, I really like the Kate Mosse one. I think she has a new one out too which I must buy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-7857505452635189272008-07-25T04:59:00.000+07:002008-07-25T04:59:00.000+07:00(can you tell i have tbr-pile-angst??) :)(can you tell i have tbr-pile-angst??) :)Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12523875341438470968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-14286502142871700932008-07-25T04:58:00.000+07:002008-07-25T04:58:00.000+07:00I think it depends on you, but having said that: i...I think it depends on you, but having said that: it's never going to be possible to read all the books you want to, so sooner or later you have to prioritise. Why buy books before you are ready to read them?<BR/><BR/>i have 20-odd books that i have not yet read. that makes me nervous and annoyed, because i wonder about when i will read them and whether i should stop everything else for a while and just read, but there is not enough time to do that. arrrgh... too many books... :(Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12523875341438470968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-38578738575580314022008-07-25T04:54:00.000+07:002008-07-25T04:54:00.000+07:00I agree you can't buy too many books (though I'm s...I agree you can't buy too many books (though I'm sure your luggage will disagree, as will my tbr pile...)!

If nothing else, it's what keeps 2nd hand bookshops in business! Glad to hear you're enjoying your time in Britain. Oh, and I'm interested in the Literary Consultancy. A friend of mine just did their novel course and said it was great. And I'll be looking for an editor for my new novel. I'll be interested to hear about it.Sue Guineyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13556228394020314560noreply@blogger.com
