I don't usually care about having/owning fiction...I just want to read it. Nonfiction, well, sometimes I want my own copy.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to my copy of <i>Moonwalking</i>, but I'll have to wait a while on it because it was a pre-order. Darn.<br /><br /><b>Linda</b> - If <i>Moonwalking</i> helps me remember things, it will be worth it. I'll have to check on <i>Mozart's Brain</i> - thanks for the recommendation! <br /><br />Aren't libraries wonderful? Don't know how I could manage without ours! :) I, too, have lots of books that are specifically for the grandkids. Thanks for stopping by, Linda!<br /><br /><b>Linda</b> - Pinterest has so many uses! Yep, I try to limit my book purchases to things I know I'll reread!<br /><br /><b>Caroline</b> - Thanks, I have become quite addicted to the process of stitching those prayer flags.<br /><br /><b>Sherri</b> - I like the way the colors stand out, too. That piece was dyed with acorns, I think. I dyed quite a lot with acorns and birch bark. Thanks for the nice comment on <i>Grace</i>!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-90612457046407047662012-02-10T08:04:05.912-06:002012-02-10T08:04:05.912-06:00Jenclair, the Grace flag is absolutely beautiful!!...Jenclair, the Grace flag is absolutely beautiful!!

Great idea to pin books. Then you can always look them up later...I go from Amazon to my library site and see what they have. I used to buy all the books I wanted to read but now I get some from the library and only buy what I really want to keep and reread. I guess you do that, too.

It's so crazy and visual it leaves an impression on the brain, I guess. I also have many books on the brain and remembering. One of my favorites that I've read more than once is "Mozart's Brain and the Fighter Pilot". Love it. So much in there. Anyway, I'm going to put your blog on my sidebar so that I keep up with your reading. My sister and I have a mostly craft blog but I'm SO into books. I remember asking my mother for 65 cents when I was a teenagere to buy the book "Pygmalion" and I was so thrilled she let me have it. Since then, it's books books and more books. When I go to the library I take out 20 or 30 books. Half of which are for my granddaughter who spends time here at night because my daughter works nights. I do like nonfiction books. You can't make up some of the real life things that happen like The Glass Castle by Jeannette Wall. You can't make that stuff up.<br /><br /> Well, a kindred spirit, then...<br /><br />Best wishes, Linda<br /><br />http://twosucculentsisters.blogspot.com/Crafts a la Modehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01199579251118328688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-46526368014660494012012-02-09T10:50:25.860-06:002012-02-09T10:50:25.860-06:00I cheat on my wish list.

Then when I have more time I go through and look the books up, check if my library has them, etc. I am a bit behind, but I actually change the comments on my pins to say 'library has' or 'library doesn't have' and then when I was buying books after Christmas I just went through to see what ones the library didn't have I would really like to own. So, yep, I'm a nerd. lol<br /><br />Also, I really hope you enjoy Moonwalking with Einstein. Down the road I plan to buy myself a copy to keep.Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.com
