I should be kept away from Book Sales with barbed wire if necessary.

Amen, sister! I have several hundred books in my not-yet-read pile, and I've been trying really, really hard not to buy (too many) more. But, the devil puts temptations before me: my husband just started a new job working for a book publisher and wholesaler. Now we have catalogues filled with books I can get at a discount setting around the house. NOT <book> FAIR!!!
