book addition

once again I need Ms Squirrly to help me add this, as I couldn't place it at the end of the list. Can you rework my addition, as I just never seem to be able to do photos and words!
Also this thread will cost me a fortune. I own some of these books, but now I want to just go to Amazon, and buy all of the others. I have no money, at all, and a library of my own, so I must own them. Books are my most prized possessions. However, I am losing my house, and the library too, so I can't be naughty and buy anything, especially since my daughter just got engaged, and somehow we have to give her a wedding. Do you find this valuable?

I understand your book addiction! I used to buy 5-7 books a month, I've cut back to 1-2 a month since the economy tanked last year as I'm in sales and it did have an impact on my income for awhile. I have a couple of piles of books I haven't even got to yet (like 20-30 books), but that doesnt' stop me from buying more when I see something I want to read! Truly an addiction. Thankfully a healthy one! Do you find this valuable?

MsS, if you could only buy 2 new releases this year, which ones would you choose? How about you, TudorCrazy? Do you find this valuable?

"MsS, if you could only buy 2 new releases this year, which ones would you choose? How about you, TudorCrazy?"
ohh Conyle, just realised I didn't answer your question here. Hmmmm that's hard but if I had to narrow it down ...it would be Kelly Hart's "Mistresses of Henry VIII" and of course David Starkey's "Viruous Prince" but theres a couple of really beautiful expensive books which I would love ...just to own....one is "Henry VIII and the Art of Majesty: Tapestries at the Tudor Court" by Thomas P. Campbell and "the Tudor Chronicles" by Susan Doran.

Oh I forgot..."in the Lions court" by Derek WIlson....as well but now I am up to 5 books....and I can still think of a few more. Do you find this valuable?
