I am a lover of “real books.” Oh yes, you remember the things…with actual pages? Not that I don’t love my Kindle or admire its convenience especially on holidays, but there’s just nothing like the feel, smell and satisfaction of enjoying the real thing. Sigh! Anyway, before I get carried away, I’d like to tell you about the plan I have for the month of August, attempting to reduce the amount of books I have in my house – which are starting to take over by the way! So here are the books I will be attempting to get through this month…
