40 Days of No Book Buying: Will I Make it?

Last year I wrote a blog about how obsessed I was with buying books (read here).  In it, I said I would give up buying books for Lent.  It seems that time is upon us.  This Wednesday started my no book buying for 40 days and nights.  Will I make it?

I hope so.  I'm doing this challenge for two reasons: 1) To help supplement the spending I do on books and 2) To help supplement the lack of space I am reaching in my condo.  I doubt that this experiment will cut down my book purchases when it's over, but I can at least say I tried.  Already it's been difficult.  I woke up Wednesday to an email from Barnes and Nobel for Buy One Get One 50% Off The 39 Clues book series.  As it so happens, I need to finish my series.  I only have the first 3 books and there are 10.  I WAS TEMPTED.

I refrained from it, but can I keep it going.  Only time will tell.
