The question of the week: What is your usual monthly book budget?
Honestly, I really should have a book budget but I don't. Also, recently I've put myself on a self induced book buying ban until I get the number of books on my bookshelf down to a manageable number. Meaning NOT overflowing and NO under the bed box full of books as well.
This weeks question is: "If you find a book that looks interesting but is part of a series, do you always start with the first title?"
No, not always. There are some series that I do because it just makes sense (like The Black Dagger Brotherhood novels). I mean you read about 1 sexy Vamp and you want to read about the rest of them right?! I did start the Mercy Thompson series with the 3rd book instead of the first book...that was a little weird.

Hi Jamie! Hopping through. You'll never believe it, but I've put myself on a book buying ban this November, too! I need to focus on school with the end of the term just a month away, so I'm not reading anything either, but I so desperately wish for it to be the end of the month already!
Have a great weekend!

Good Morning Jamie!
Happy Friday.
New follower here. I’m doing all three of the Friday blog runs. I don’t limit myself to budget with books. I just love to read and write so that line is always doable for me. And Yes, I love start a series at the 1st book.

Happy Friday, Jamie! Bravo to you for sticking to your ban till you can get through your current stacks. I REALLY need to do that. Enjoy the weekend!
Hi! New follower here.
I think I'm the only one that hasn't read the Black Dagger Brotherhood *feels left out* :P

Hey, new follower from the hop.
I don't totally have a budget either and I try to keep my to-be-read pile small before I buy a new book too.
Have a great weekend, Caroline, Words & Whispers
Just hopped in to say hi and am now a follower. Have a wonderful weekend!
Hi there! Just hoppin' on by. <3 I'm a new follower! :D
My book budget is $0! I'm a poor college student, so I only borrow books from the library or read in Barnes and Noble while hogging their air conditioning. :)
Kristina @ Frazzled Book Nommer. Have a good weekend! <3

Just found you through the Hop! I am definitely a library girl. I hate buying a book and then finding out that it doesn't live up to the hype. When I read everything through the library, then I can be more picky about only buying my favorites. Have a great weekend!
Hey! I just realized that you already stopped by Book Love! Thanks :)
Hi, I'm stopping by from the hop! I usually try to read books in order, but I sometimes find out that a book is part of a series. Have a blessed weekend! :)
