It's amazing how that can happen with Audible... it never used to happen to me -- in audio or in print -- but I guess the backlog has a little something to do with hearing about more and more great books all the time :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03215797870829907924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-86236566592301656492018-01-21T21:32:51.259-05:002018-01-21T21:32:51.259-05:00Thanks Kay!

Not a favorite, but it did make for a good discussion.

I've temporarily frozen my Audible account because I have such a backlog of audiobooks to listen to.

I don't read a lot of poetry but last year I read The Princess Saves Herself in This One and although it was heartbreaking it was also hopeful and I loved it. As for nonfiction books, I hope to read more of those this year as well. Last year I read Presenting Buffalo Bill, and learned a lot I never knew about him. It was very interesting. I also read The Soul of an Octopus on audio and that was a great nonfiction book. Good luck with your monthly budget! I think that is a good idea and better than just banning book buying all together.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03726890988367858211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-43093923858491138812018-01-07T06:15:27.481-05:002018-01-07T06:15:27.481-05:00ooh I love your goals and how detailed so many of ...ooh I love your goals and how detailed so many of them are!
