Why You Little Book Worm You!

This entry is packed with Pics so just a warning that for those with slow computers/browsers it may take a minute or two to load.
I finished reading my book and now I'm out of books. Theres a sequel that came out not too long ago to Once Upon A Winter's Night called Once Upon A Summer's Night by Dennis L. McKiernan and I'd love to have it. But its uber expensive! Don't think I'll be finding that little treasure at the Dollar Tree anytime soon. Too bad I hate when I get one book in a series and can't finish the series. Its annoying as hell! So the book ends without a real ending. The story is to continue probably in this sequel. Well maybe I'll get it one day. I'm out of space for books. I have one little table left to put them but four or five will only fit on it. So the question is where can I put all my books? I love books. I don't want to get rid of any of them. I want to display them proudly and say yup I've read all of those. I collect old harlequin romance novels. Not all harlequin romances but the ones that look like this:

I had tons more of them but my mom gave a bunch away accidently awhile back. :( But I'm slowly collecting them again. Out of all the harlequin's series those are my favorite and in my opinion best writen.
I looked around and found a few more empty spaces that will hold a few more books. They won't hold many but they'll do.

Ontop of my stero speaker will hold what about two maybe three? Once I put garfield and my little hobo statue somewhre else.

Then there is ontop of the DVD player. Tall books won't fit but short ones will. That'll probably hold a good 10 or so.

If I moved my phone and Mr. Lucky Irish Bear then I could put a few up there. So I guess I have more room then I thought. I know why not have an actual bookcase right? Well because there is no room in my room for one. I kinda like the books being all around my room though. Its nice being surronded by books.
Here are some pics of my book collections. I know its boring but I don't know what else to update about. Anyway I guess to some its a lot of books but to some its probably only a few.

Books ontop of my big bulky desk that I hate.

Books have even taken over dresser number one where my cat likes to sleep.

Books took over this dresser too. I have two dressers.

And my last full spot. My little mini bookcase that holds my videos and dvds and cd cases. I'd use that for all my books but the tall ones won't fit in the shelves and then I wouldn't have anywhere to put dvds/videos or cds.
Well thats it. Now you have a little peek into my room. The place where I spend most of my time.
I am on a quest to find a hosting place. I want one that takes paypal and that isn't overly expensive to pay yearly. I detest paying monthly. But so far I have had no luck.
I tried really hard to find places to upload my music to so I could put them on my site but no luck there either. The places I did find turned out to be rip offs or dead ends. So I'm just looking for actually web hosting. I figure if I find it I can forget geocities and use that for my design site. Its just too bad I'm having no luck. So if you know any let me know.
Also I'm looking for diary directories to list my diary on so I can get some more readers. If you know any please let me know thanks so much.
I've decided that one of my new favorite Writers is Dennis L. McKiernan. He is great. I loved his first book and would love to read more. Here are some of the books that turned up during my search for his books on amazon. Dennis's Books
So now I'm looking through my books wondering what to read next. Or in my case re-read. Hmm maybe for my birthday I'll get that Once Upon A Summer's Night...okay so my birthday isn't until like April but hey by then the price will have gone down yes?
I think I'm going to google him and see if I can't read up on him. I like reading up on my favorite authors. Some of my other favorites are Nora Roberts, Poe, Michael Swanwick, Sandra Benitez, and Benjamin Saenz.
My favorite book Carry Me Like Water by Benjamin Saenz Disappeared which makes me sad. I want that book but I have NO clue where it went. Maybe I'll find it again one day. I bought it too at the Dollar Store. Used to all my favorite books where bought there or for really cheap at a used bookstore but now the dollar store just has the same books. Oh well maybe they'll get some new ones in eventually.
Okay so now I've talked about one of my favorite things in the world and probably bored you all to death. But hey I love books. They helped me escape when things in my life were at their worst. Books and Music are my two loves. But I'll do a entry on music another day. I'll spare you that one...for now.
Oh ya and in case your wondering I'll leave you with links to my top five favorite books that I would recomend to anybody.
Carry Me Like Water
Bitter Grounds
Dear Stranger, Dearest Friend
Once Upon A Winter's Night
Honor Bound

Old Tears + New Fears = Lolita
