Hahahaha, it’s okay! It’s my own weakness that makes it a problem. :p

Iris, you absolutely need to read the Casson Family series. You’re going to love them like crazy.

I always kind of hate it and love it when a new and much prettier edition of a book I love comes out. I try not to buy doubles, but it is incredibly tempting!

I think I need to read the Casson Family series?

I have done that multiple times in the past. For some authors, I will buy THE BEST COPY to keep and then another that is approachable that I allow myself to pick up and read more often and lend out. There’s nothing wrong with this – it makes sense!

Bring on the sagging bookshelves.

Kazu Kibuishi (the illustrator) is coming to Z’s school next week and we were saying “wouldn’t it be nice to get a signed set of those new books” and then I remembered I already have hardcover first editions so why would I replace those, right? And then my next horrible thought was “or I could own them ALL!” My wallet hates me.

My country done good. I am almost tempted. I saw you mention the HP covers above – how do you like the new HP covers from Scholastic? I love my UK covers, but I would be tempted by a new set with those matching covers.

Three are trade paperbacks from two different printings, and one is a mass-market paperback. At least I can take comfort from my three copies of A Wrinkle in Time and four of Little Women.

I could easily spend all of my money just buying multiple copies of books I already own!

Hahahahaha, I know. I realized after buying those mass market paperbacks that it was a mistake. But now it’s too late.

Yes, that one. The Paradise Lost has a fancy binding and gold-tipped pages and the William Blake illustrations. You gave me the Jane Eyre! That green one.

You should have my one! It has these black and white line drawings. It’s very nice.
