some books just never get old

That's true!

Guys, I have a problem...

What’s that??

That is what happens when I have access to a library with no check-out limit... :]

BAHHAHAHAHA YASSSSSSS

Once I got 17 books...

And they needed to give me a plastic bag to put them in

but then
they all ripped

AND THE BOOKS SPILLED OUT OF THE BAG :OOOO

😂😲 That's hilarious!!! But also, poor books. . .

Haha nice, I do the same things sometimes ;) . . . it rarely ends well lol. But good luck getting through all those!!

lol, once I took out 23 books abd the same thing happened. They should start putting a limit on our cards.

That sure is a problem XD I think my library finally put limits on the amount you could check out... Or rather, lowered them. I want to say you used to be able to check out 50 books at a time XD

Would be interested in knowing the titles of the Dear America books you have. I have most of the Dear Canada books and am looking to find some really good Dear America books but draw up a blank when trying to find one of interest.

How is Mama Bear Apologetics? I've seen that one pop up quite often this past year.

Lily, I haven't gotten to it yet. I wanted to this summer, but had some other reads crowd it out. I have a friend who loved it, so I look forward to getting to it.

Shannon, me too! That's why they are there (vs. on a shelf) patiently waiting for me to work through them.

I added a few to mine…

“Were You There? Find Yourself With Jesus” - Paintings by Ron DiCianni Stories by Neil Wilson.
….This book has phenomenal paintings and stories to really help you personalize the stories in the Gospels
The next few books are about biblical astronomy (aka my PASSION!)

“Mazzaroth: Or The Constellations” followed by “Mizraim: Or Astronomy of Egypt” both By F. Rolleston These are both over a century old and the print is difficult to read. I literally need a magnify glass. Both are necessary for biblical astronomy 🔭

“The Witness Of The Stars” By E.W. Bullinger
FULL of great information

“Astronomy and The Bible” By Donald B. Deyoung
…this one was a free book at the market and I’m not sure how I feel about it yet

The Crimson Shard

How do you add the link like that??

Are you on the app or website? You can't add it on the app, but on the site, whenever you comment, it says "add book/author" in BLUE letters above the box.

Once you click that, there's an option at the bottom where you can add a book title OR cover. Then search the book, and click "add"

Then just comment!!

(Just make sure your cursor is where you want the book title/cover to appear in your comment)

I think it's a great feature, but the covers come up quite blurry, so I prefer the link. (At least blurry on my phone. Can't remember if they come up blurry on my laptop.)

I’ll try when I’m not on the app. Thank you

K!! And np!!

Oh, got it! I'd love to see a review from you if you write reviews. :)

I do write reviews, so I will try to remember to let you know when I do. :)
