scrapbookbuzz Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I need some humor in my life and since I have an addiction...er, healthy respect for books, thought I'd start there. Finish this sentence: You know you may have too many books when... I'll start. You know you may have too many books when . . . your good friend calls you to borrow a book before she checks with the library! Talk to me! :bigear: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
