Hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading
Today’s question:
Do you like looking at other people’s bookshelves?
My answer:
Absolutely. Other people’s bookcase’s are like magnets when I walk into someone’s home. I’m automatically drawn to it. If it is the first time visiting, it makes for a wonderful “ice breaker” and topic of conversation. It also gives a little peek into the likes of the host/hostess. If it someone who I visit more often, I still gravitate to their bookcases. But the conversation starts with the”what new books have you added and what do you recommened?” At that point, I either am offered to borrow the book or grab a pen and piece of paper to write down the title(s) for when I get home to write them down on my “tbr hopefully in my lifetime list”.

Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia of A girl and her books and is now on tour.
According to Marcia, “Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.”
