We recently decided to grow up and start being more responsible with our money, which included making and actually following a very thorough budget so that we could pay off the massive amount of credit card debt we have accumulated. We have 6 credit cards and paid off the first last month and are hoping to pay off the second next month. After that they get a bit bigger and will take a little more time, but we are determined to be and live debt free. It is great that you celebrated by buying books and paying cash! Wonderful! I'm sorry I haven't been over here more often. I didn't even realize you were back in the good ol' US of A! How fantastic for you! Congrats in paying off that card.

Now, if I can find what I am looking for, it is a great option. Maybe getting older sometimes does mean getting wiser. I use to loathe used books.

You have some great reading ahead of you!

It was quite good and I am adding Rumer Godden to my list of authors to be read one day, when I have my Fill the Gaps challenge list under control.

We Have Always Lived in the Castle was worth the search. I can't wait to hear what you make of it! Congrats on being both debt-free and on the TBR pile.

I don't think I've read Two Under the Indian Sun, and I can't remember China Court fantastically well, though I remember liking it. But The Diddakoi is impossible not to love. Excellent haul!

And I've just finished Shirley Jackson's memoir of family life, Life Among the Savages, which was just so, so funny. Now I'm really keen to read her gothic horror and I've ordered her biography as it turns out she was also quietly mad on the side. I am so happy to think you now have a TRB pile again. The book famine is finally over! :) Ooh I haven’t read Rumer Godden for years although I loved what I did read.
