Your house is burning down and you have time to select three books you own to take with you. What three books? - Suggested by Alison Can Read.
I have several autographed books that would be nice to have, but I'm not sure that's where I would go first. I have some old children's books from when I was a kid that I would hate to lose, but they're kind of packed away and I doubt I could get to them. Maybe I need to rethink their location! So if I'm answering the question as asked, I'd have to say The Night Before Christmas from me and my siblings' childhoods. And some other children's books. One would be Never Tease a Weasel, one of my favorites.
Most books are replaceable, right? I used to say I'd grab my photo albums, but now most of my pictures are electronically stored too. What do I want to save? I would grab my backup hard drive--I have one with just pictures on it. I would grab my computer. I have a tub in my closet with old photo albums -- the ones before pictures were digital -- so I'd try to grab that. This is such a hard question and I hope I never have to actually make that decision!
Thanks for visiting. Leave me a link with your thoughts on this one. Have a great weekend!
This is a hard question. I probably wouldn’t take any books. I’d be more concerned with saving the dogs and the computer.

Aj @ Read All The Things!
I picked three, to go with the rules, but I'd really just grab my Kindle. Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteI picked 3 too to answer the question, but I'd for sure be taking my Kindles and Bible.

The Night Before Christmas is a pretty great choice. If I could, I'd definitely grab my kindle! I'm an old follower. :)

The house is on fire not really gonna think about books :)
ReplyDeleteI'm grabbing my tablet, my photo books and the signed books. I don't really have a favorite book I can't live without.

This is a really hard question! It makes me think I should really work on having a proper fire plan...

My first thought was that everything is replaceable too! Great answer! Old follower :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my F&F!
I'd be so busy grabbing birth certificates, scan pics, old photos and the envelopes with first haircuts in them that I really wouldn't even think of books. And if I did it would be the signed ones and any sentimental ones and that's it.
