I decided it couldn’t wait any longer. I needed a second bookshelf. My book collection had already spilled onto the floors of my studio-office before Christmas hit. After Christmas, with its joyous influx of new books, I realized I needed to organize my books and give them a proper home. My daughter felt the same, so we both bought new bookshelves. Here are my new acquisitions, along with new ebooks and some other awesome gifts I received this year.
The above books say so much about me–Post-apocalypse, Science Fiction/Fantasy, Writing, and Birds.
Book 2 & 3 (and Book 1 for that matter) were gifts from a friend. I’m completely addicted to the series now and had to buy Book 4 this past Monday. I bought Void by Rhiannon Lassiter at the same time but didn’t realize till I was home that the books were color coordinated. LOL
Before I move onto ebooks, look at my new tea cup!!!
New ebooks for my Kindle Touch:
This doesn’t include the free ebooks I snagged over the holidays:
I love free ebooks. I’m subscribed to receive a list of Free Kindle Books daily.
Okay. Now with the books out of the way, here’s a gift I received from my brother that I just LOVE. I’m also extremely proud because he bought them on Etsy!
I love Jay Hungate’s sculptures. The two small wall hangings on the left I originally discovered in November. I bought them for a friend’s birthday (same friend who has me addicted to The Walking Dead graphic novels). I fell in love with them and decided to put them and Raven’s Moon on my Christmas list. Shopping on Etsy is a common practice for me, but it’s foreign territory for my family, so I wasn’t sure if I’d get these or not. But I did!! My brother bought all three!
Those sculptures are very cool! And, now that you have a nice new bookshelf, you can fill it will all sorts of great books! I actually need to box up some of my books –I saw one shelf is bowing slightly, so I should attend to that. 🙂
Oh! Bowing is not good but I’m sure it’s a sign of a bookaholic. 😉
CONGRATS on your Art of the Day today, Amanda!
Thank you, Annie! 😀
Very cool book and sculpture additions. I think you’ll like the White Plague. I have two boxes of my old Fantasy and Sci-Fi mags tucked away to re-read someday. If F&SF is as good as it used to be, you’ll enjoy that too. (very pretty tea cup)
Thanks! I definitely have a lot of reading to do. I love my new tea cup. It has a lid to keep it from getting cold while I wait on the tea bag.
Wow, what a bounty! You have much to be grateful for. Would’ve liked to have seen your books on your new bookshelf tho’. Maybe sometime in the future, eh?
Great share.
Well… That would require me taking a photo from my bedroom and I’m not ready to get that personal with the world. LOL 😀
