Heh. Apparently, I invented a new word tonight -- #Booksalanche . When you reach for one book in a pile, and the whole thing falls over.

Yikes! I just had a #Booksalanche! All of a sudden, my pile of books became unstable and tumbled down! Titles involved? #TheHandmaidsTale (placed at the bottom, which made the pile unstable), #PowerLimitsAndProspectsForHumanSurvival, Collected tales of #MaryShelly, #EarthForAll, #TheFarmersAlmanac, and #MovingMars! (I was looking for the Power book). Hmmmm....
