Top Ten Bookish Confessions
Everyone has at least one bookish confession.  Join us in spilling our deepest held secrets around one of our most beloved pastimes. Everyone has a bookish confession. What's yours?

Here are my Top Ten Bookish Confessions (I don't think I'll make it to ten, but we'll see how this goes).

1. I have on occasion returned a book given to me in order to either pick up one that I really wanted instead, or get a different copy of the book that fits in with the other editions I have of the same series. I can't help that I'm a little picky about my shelf.

2. I do judge what other people read, but only in fun. (50 Shades of Grey readers, I'm looking at you!) I really don't care that you like romances novels more than anything else, or have never read Harry Potter. Okay maybe I care about that last one a little. But seriously I read too many books that aren't marketed towards me to judge other's book choices. I just may give you some grief for them ;)

3. I am always tempted by books that get turned into movies, but I tend not to get around to reading them, especially if I see the movie first. Call it laziness, or whatever you like, after that I just can't be bothered. Besides, reading the book first is always more enjoyable to me!

4. I very rarely let other people borrow my books unless I know that I will see them in the very near future to get said book back, or I know they will treat the book with as much or more respect than I do. As a result, my library tends to stay at home. Maybe I would feel better if I put personalized book plates in all my books and kept my own circulation system.
