This is part of the library:

Every now and then I add to it, but the rule is, since I’ve run out of shelf space, I have to give up some before I can buy more.

This is two of the shelves.  There are eight in all, and all are full.

Last week I found a $5 book shop, that is all the books are $5 and, if course, I can’t resist a rummage.

In the event, I turned up two books by a new author (for me) Mick Herron, who writes spy novel, another by James Rollins and Chris Ryan.

I don’t always limit my purchases to novels, and, found a non-fiction book about London in the time of King James.  Just in case I decide one day to write a novel during that period.  That’s in addition to James Naughtie, also spies, James Patterson, which is generally mandatory if I see one, and Peter James (crime).

My new comprehensive a-z crossword dictionary is a great help too.
