  1. You must have a generous library! Mine only allows 20 checkouts at once. Which, on reflection, might be a good thing!

  2. I actually don't know what the maximum no. is that can be checked out is! I often worry that I am getting close, but don't seem to have reached it yet!

  3. Marg, wow that is lot of books. Back than, the maximum for the number of books allowed to checks out is as many as we want. But now I really don't know what the maximum is....I just know that if we re-check out the books again, it could be done only 3 times online. And it can be re-check as many as we want if we walk - in the library check out. And we allow to have the book for only 3 weeks.

    Anyway, I love Julie Garwood historical old books. It sad that she not writing many more historical....but I'm happy that her latest book has a re-appearance of the characters from previous historical books. Or either that, they're just mention. I haven't read the book but it in my TBR piles :)

  4. Wow. Will you actually read all of those books before they are due?

    I'm trying to avoid the library right now because I own so many books I need to read.

  5. Most of them, but it takes a little bit of juggling to get to them all!
