Books bought in 2012

Sooooo, 3 new books came in the mail today, and I know I've got more coming.  I've decided that keeping track of the books I buy this year will be a good idea for two reasons.

1. To see how many of them we actually read.
2. To see how many books I buy (and how much money I spend on them).

The ones that came today are

 Oh Say Can You Say What's the Weather Today?

This one actually came from PaperbackSwap.com, so I didn't have to pay for it.

 

Frugal Luxuries

 Discover Nature in Winter

I've also bought several books for my Kindle lately.  Don't judge me.  As I'm sure these lists will prove, I buy books in bursts, depending on what my interests are and what's going on around our home.  I also usually search the library first.  Unfortunately our local library doesn't have a lot in the way of homeschooling/unschooling books.  And some books are just cheaper to own than to keep paying late fees for.  : )

I already feel like this is a really good idea.  I've already bought enough books to last me a few months, which I wouldn't have realized had I not listed them out.
