The # 1 fear for any book lover!
Being a book lover myself, I would have to say my #1 fear is running out of space for keeping my books. And I'm referring to printed books! I don't have have a problem with eBooks as they're way too easy to store.
Last year, I went through my library (a.k.a. - bookshelves and closets), boxed up many books that I no longer wanted and donated them to a local Salvation Army. At the time, I felt pretty good as I finally gotten rid of books that no longer intrigued me and uncluttered two closets. Fast forward to the present, where I have replaced most of the books with new ones. My tastes in books have changed in the last two years, so I have started collection different genres. Well, not exactly new ones as most of them are used books. While my reading collection might seem small to some readers, for me it seems quite large due to limited storage space.

As industrialization and modernization has mad dour lives easier, it has also made it less livable at the same time. Increased pollution, deteriorating air and water quality and climate changes have made us all more vulnerable to diseases and allergies. Water remains an important lifeline but unfortunately, one can only dream of finding clean and pure water in their pipelines. Usually, it’s simply hard water that is not only unfit for human consumption, but also results in faded laundry, skin allergies, and limes ale buildups.

Good Evening, Everyone!
What Am I Reading?
Reading wasn't exactly a top priority for me last week. Thanks to the spring weather arriving early, my allergies kicked in, which has put a strain on my eyes. Someone recommended to me to take a Vitamin A supplement which I started taking yesterday.
One Wednesday, I had to help move and install a new washing machine and dryer for my parents, so my back is a little store for it. Since the weather is warmer, my mother and I will begin going though my grandmother's belongs in the storage unit. Throwing stuff away and donating other things. We're not getting rid of everything.
This week, I finally going to read The Chill by Scott Carson. I would do this last week but at the last minute I had to read an eBook for a book tour I had forgotten about. However, before The Chill, I will read The Girl Who Loved Twice by David Lagercrantz as I need to return the book to the library by the March 11th.
I'm reading Moonraker by Iran Fleming on my Kindle. Then I'll be reading Diamonds Are Forever, followed by other 007 novels.

Twelve-year-old Alex may have lost his ability to play sports, but he gained the ability to see ghosts. Now he must figure out how to put an evil spirit to rest—or die trying.
Once an athlete and popular kid, Alex is in a terrible car accident that severely injures his hip and leaves him with a rare power: he can hear and see ghosts. All Alex wants is to be normal. But when a malevolent spirit begins haunting him, Alex must accept his unwanted psychic powers and work with his best friend, his paranormal investigator cousin, and two friendly spirits to solve the mystery of the bones in the wall and put the vicious ghost to rest. If he fails, he’ll lose his family and friends to a gruesome fate.
"An inventive, fast-paced tale brimming with chills, thrills, and heart. Perfect for fans of Lockwood & Co."
— Henry H. Neff, author of The Tapestry series

It's been a busy week, so I almost completely forgot about reading Ghost Hunters: Bones in the Wall until yesterday. I spent the majority of my morning reading this book while sipping on a cup of coffee.
Like most books I've been reading lately, I didn't read the blurb. I only signed up to review the book based on its cover, which I thought the plot was going to be an adult horror story. However upon reading, I quickly learned this a middle school story. (FYI: I do like reading kids' books!)
Ghost Hunters centers around Alex, a twelve-year-old who gets a "sixth sense" after being in a horrible car accident. He now can see and communicate with the dead. With the help of his best friend, Jason, and his weird cousin, Hannah, Alex must solve a mystery and stop a vengeful ghost.
Overall, I enjoyed reading Ghost Hunters: Bones in the Wall. It's a fast-paced, well-written story with likable characters. The story has a nice Goosebumps vibe! Readers of all ages will have a blast reading it.
