Monday Musing

This a even that takes place at Should Be Reading Blog

Today Question is  

What’s at the top of your must-buy list, right now? (or, if you don’t wait — if you’re more impulsive — what books have you recently purchased?)

I  would say at the top to buy list would be The Autobiograpy of Mrs. Tom Thumb by Melanie Benjamin The Autobiography of Mrs. Tom Thumb: A Novel I love her first book  Alice I Have Been Alice I Have Been: A Novel (Random House Reader's Circle) both are historical fictional based on real people.

Although we were just at a book festival (more on that later) and the book store Most Recently bought was  for me and hubby We Are The Ship  We Are the Ship: The Story of Negro League Baseball  We just recently saw the illustrator/author Kadir Nelson at the Book Festival.

What hubby bought was Eating the Dinosaur by Chuck Klosterman Eating the Dinosaur He already read an enjoyed this book and a new release a Divine Misfortune by A. Lee Martinez Divine Misfortune.

I am not a great planner. when I make lists I lose or forget them. when I do buy a book it tends to be an impulse buy..and I am not really looking to buying many new books, since I have enough in my TBR pile to last a year or two right now.

After thinking about this question I learned I am a list person, I have a little book I keep my list of books in, and as I buy them I mark them off my list. However, I am also an impulse buyer, I can;t pass up a good book, even if it's not on my list. I love Library Sales, also.

I keep a record on goodreads.com of what I read and what I want to read... I just started keeping a record of what to read next. More like a schedule...;-)
