What's on your Nightstand?


What's on Your Nightstand.

I have always been a library user, but I also have a huge book collection with a huge TBR pile sitting around, so usually, I have a book I own on my actual nightstand, but this week, I went to the library and checked out some books, so I decided to showcase these for this blog post.
The titles are pretty much random choosings from the shelves of the library. Last night after dinner, I was trying to get a new picture for my blog header, and just happened to take a picture of some of my library books... (notice I did not use this as my header. I used the birds at my kitchen window birdfeeder instead ).



So, does anyone see any good titles there in my library pile? Anything I should definitely read before returning them to the library? I have a bad habit of doing that...I'll check out 10 books and read one.... and I don't want to let a great read escape me, so if you see something I shouldn't pass up, let me know.

These aren't exactly on my nightstand, but rather, in the closet....of what used to be my son's room (he's married now and expecting twins in June). It's my "children's library". Now it will be my Grandchildren's library. (I'm expecting a 3rd grandbaby this year too, from my oldest son and his wife) Right now it's just a messy closet. ( I was thinking maybe I could get a good picture for a header out of it, but no.... )
I am lucky to have friends and family who have children who like to read, so, while it might be messy, they love to go up there with me looking for a book to borrow and find a whole lot of treasures while browsing.


Those are my nightstands for this month.

I haven't read any of your pile of books but that closet looks like a cool place to go looking for book treasures. Thank you for visiting my blog.

I haven't read any on that pile - sorry for no wisdom on that! I do love all the kids' books - what a treasure for your grandkids!
