You have a lot of books I've read: The Lord of the Rings, Madeline L'engle's books, Divergent series, the Velvetine Rabbit (which is a major childhood favorite of mine). I'm so glad you like the tag. ^ ^ And the page that emancipated from its family.

But I think that comes from buying them with my own money, for one, and also not wanting to mar the pretty covers because they're just too pretty to get ruined. <br /><br />You're welcome! Now that you mention it, I do think I remember you doing this tag before, but I would love to see your answers again, now that you have some new additions. :) <br /><br />Thanks for commenting! :) Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-66486731174260698142015-10-11T17:50:46.527-07:002015-10-11T17:50:46.527-07:00You're welcome!

I look forward to your answers. :) <br /><br />I love the whole series too--although, I think I'd have to say Inkheart is my favorite. <br /><br />I will have to see about getting a picture of that book up soon, maybe in my next Wednesday blog post, if I remember. <br /><br />Thanks for commenting! :) Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-31247256622780266852015-10-10T18:01:17.095-07:002015-10-10T18:01:17.095-07:00Lord of the Rings is sooooooo long.

I am always hesitant but willing to lend out books, and I myself put them in conditions of disrepute because BOOKS HAVE NO SANCTITY MWAHAHAHA. Still, I guess it's good you're taking care of your belongings. And thank you so much for tagging me! I think I did this one, but because my bookshelf needs to be put back together with new additions and stuff, I see no reason to not do it again... >:DHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797485444727976121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-25703231430236556952015-10-05T15:31:07.067-07:002015-10-05T15:31:07.067-07:00Thanks so much for tagging me!

And she had such a great sense of humor. <br /><br />No worries--I'm totally with you. <br /><br />It is very heavy, and I can understand not being able to get through it. It's a great fantasy, but it's not for everyone either. So, no need to feel ashamed. If you do get through it, though, I'd love to know what you think of it. <br /><br />Ack, that's like, my worst nightmare. I usually don't lend out to anyone but family anymore, because I've lent out to friends and gotten back books that were water-damaged or dirt-stained and just ergh. Not cool. (But I guess it's worse to not get them back at all.)<br /><br />Thanks for commenting!

But they make me so happy. And I love it when they have little inscriptions in them from the old owners, because then they definitely feel like they have more history about them.

I mention Jane Austen on my blog sometimes and I usually get "Ew! A classic and a romance!" And I'm just thinking, "You do know that she helped develop the novel into what it is today? You also know that if it she helped make novels a venerable thing to read and drew them away from the gothic trend of her time?" She was a revolutionary if you ask me. And a lady writer! Jane Austen is cool. <br /><br />Sorry. Small rant there. <br /><br />I feel like a very bad fantasy writer because I have not read all of LOTR yet. *hangs head* But your LOTR book sounds awesome! And, uh, very heavy to carry around. <br /><br />I used to love letting people borrow my books, because I liked spreading the story love. But one day someone never returned one of my favorites (it was Pride and Prejudice), and now I have to do background checks on all how wish to borrow my books (my sister is the only exception, since all I have to do to get my book back is raid her room from across the hall). a.n.g.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03667996517318905980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-30444082034164015482015-10-02T02:50:09.356-07:002015-10-02T02:50:09.356-07:00I think the organisation of my bookshelves would r...I think the organisation of my bookshelves would rival yours. We have (at last count) nine bookshelves in our house, and, despite my best effort the books are organised by nothing more than whatever slot was closest to hand after reading. That's what happens when you have a house full of disorganised readers. Love your answer. You have some seriously old books in your collection though. I think my oldest come from the 1940s maybe? Nothing so old as yours. There's nothing quite like old books. They have an air of history and experience about them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05746017057593508370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-78868463652192905172015-09-30T23:28:51.715-07:002015-09-30T23:28:51.715-07:00THIS TAG IS AWESOME.
