I carry a book around in my purse at all times for fear of being somewhere that I could read and not have anything to read!!!!!! Shocked

I KNOW I'm a Romance Bookaholic when:

I measure the purses I buy to make sure a large book will fit snugly

OR

I'd much prefer to have those H/h as my friends than people I meet

OR

I dream about my fictionland friends and get up with a smile

OR

I can't wait for friends and family to go home so i can share my space with my fictionland friends

I know I'm a romanceaholic when:

A. Laughing

Apply for a credit card so I know I'll always have enough for that next multi book shopping fix.

B. Very Happy

Can't drive by the bookstore without stopping in to see what's been added to the shelves since my last visit. Embarassed

Sometimes that's within a twenty-four hour period.

C. Wink

Make up my own stories if I'm broke and don't have any more TBR reads.

D. Re-re-re-re read keepers. Sometimes I feel like a smoker who is out of cigs and money, and they start searching ashtrays for buts that still have a bit of white on them. I know, ewww, but true. I feel that desperate. Laughing

Keeps me from maxing that credit card, I'll tell ya! Very Happy

All of the above!!! And... all my lab coats have to have at least one pocket that's large enough to carry a paperback in so I have one available to read on my lunch break. Rolling Eyes

I can't go to Wal-mart w/o stopping by the book section (even though I'm not interested in any new releases).

I know I'm a Romance Bookaholic when....I base my shopping on how close the place is to a Bookstore.

I know I am a Romance Bookaholic when I:

Buy the book anyway knowing that I will end up eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or plain pasta with butter at the end of the month.

Make sure my new purse has a pouch I can put a book in.

Have it written out and added to my will....I want 5 or 6 books in my casket for when I GO!!!

Can't pass a bookstore without stopping in and browsing.

The book section of any store is where everyone knows to find me when they are ready to go.
