Bookworm or Hoarder?

Thrifty Word Challenge #22: Guilty

Now if there’s a law saying each person is only allowed so many books in one lifetime, they might have to put me away.

These walls of books are almost a prison in and of themselves. If that’s the case, I gladly do my time! Yep, I’m guilty as charged.

Thank you, Marla Bishop, for inspiring us to write about our guilty pleasures!
