Recent Book Purchases

Question: What do I do when I'm stressed?
Answer: BUY BOOKS!

List of Books:
  1. Children of the Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi
  2. BB-8 On the Run by Drew Daywalt
  3. The Family Book by Todd Parr (pretty sure I own a copy already but stress)
  4. More More More, said the Baby by Vera B. Williams
  5. How Do Dinosaurs Get Well Soon? by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague
  6. How Do Dinosaurs Get Ready for Bed? by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague
  7. Knuffle Bunny: A Cautionary Tale by Mo Willems (because I love this book)
  8. The Survival Guide for Kids with Add or ADHD by John F. Taylor, Ph.D
  9. The Dream Keeper and Other Poems by Langston Hughes
  10. Kevin and His Dad by Irene Smalls
  11. Raven: A Trickster Tale from the Pacific Northwest by Gerald McDermott
  12. I Love You Just Because by Todd Parr
  13. Star Wars: The Last Jedi, a Junior Novel by Michael Kogge (Ezra "needed" it)
I mean looking at that list I feel like I showed restraint. I'm actually rather proud of myself for not buying more books. Yesterday I was spazzy stressed and I only got three books because I couldn't sit still to read the back of them. Today I got the other ten and since I was more or less calmer than yesterday, I took the time to read all the backs before settling on these. I don't necessarily think stress buying is bad especially since my son loves to read. I just wish I had gotten myself more than the two books I did.

Now the Tomi Adeyemi book is AMAZING I haven't been able to put it down since I started reading it. I'm really happy I got it because wow! The characters pull you in and won't let you go. I'm looking forward to finishing it!
