Latest Library Run

I'm in the midst of stockpiling library books for our upcoming vacation.  Since I can only order two books at a time to be delivered to our little library, I decided to make a trip to a larger institution a few towns away.  That way, I can pick up a big pile at one time and fill in with the piddly little library orders.  If it seems like a huge list for just a week's vacation, it is.  But because I've been blessed with a mind that can read so quickly, I go through books like wildfire (now doing math equations rapidly is a whole different story).  The trick will be to keep my hands off the pile until vacation.  Yah, right.

I like to alternate between fiction and non-fiction.  You know, read one fiction and then one non-fiction, back and forth.  Since I'm a little low on non-fiction titles, that's what I'll be ordering from the library next.  Knowing how much I love it when others share titles, thought maybe I'd share the pile here with you:
