    I'm NOT going to ask how you know that! I was thinking of hiding them behind a bush before going in, then when everyones asleep, sneak out the window and smuggle them in!

    Sadly, I'm probably beyond hope having answered yes to everyone one of them, except one, so there probably won't be windows where I'm staying, just lots of padded walls. I suppose I could rip a hole in the padding with my teeth, and stick books in there, but I just had work done on them.........Oh, the trials and tribulations of a bibliophile.

    I think I would have to be admitted just for the amount of books that I buy. I never get the time to really sit down and read them like I used to. So I never get the opportunity to catch up. Yet, I want more and more and more books. I really need a place to cure me of my insatiable need to keep obtaining more books! I think if I could be locked up somewhere and made to go through withdrawl, there might be hope for my recovery!

    Hello my name is Lily Adams and I am a readaholic...among many other "holics".

    I'm reading six books simultaneously at the moment. It's been cutting me off from the normal excessive reality TV viewing and texting. I really believe I have a problem. Please help.


    Tomorrow always holds the promise of something new and exciting. I am the Jetsons meet the Flintstones.

    Oh, yes, excellent! Of course, wouldn't it be naughty of us to try to go through withdrawal off of one thing while we are still devouring something that could produce another addiction in its place?? Then again, if we could keep it under control, this would be our little secret! Nobody would have to know!!!
