The Sunday Salon #3
Morning all! Are all you Read-a-Thon readers crawling out of your beds yet? I REALLY wanted to participate, but life didn't let me. As it was, I just harassed Trish all night.
There once was a lady named Trish
Who did not look like a fish
All night she read
then took to her bed
T'would be my greatest wish.
Dude. Limericks are hard.
Trish posted pictures of her lovely kitty Maggie during the read-a-thon, so I thought it was Bijou's turn for the spotlight this morning.
Ahem. Anyway. On to the Sunday Salon! I am a single parent today, so I can't make big plans to do much of anything. I'm hoping to get a little reading done- I've started a Meg Cabot that is just right, light and fluffy. I'm carrying The Boy in the Striped Pajamas around in my bag. Harry Dresden is waiting by my bed. I'm in a super mushy romantic book mood, so I might have to scour the shelves for something else.
This week I read Cerulean Sins by Laurell K Hamilton. After being a bit put off by the book and a conversation with Gina, the person who knows my reading habits best in all the world (16 years of sharing books will do that to a friend) I have decided to trade off the rest of the series unread. I have too many good books waiting and if I can't bear it later I can find them at a library.
I know you're all waiting to hear who won the books this week! I wrote all the entries for the Cry Wolf on a piece of paper in random order. The Pirate closed his eyes and picked samantha.1020 from Sam's Book Blog as winner! Congrats sam! Email me at bookslistslife AT gmail with your mailing address! If you didn't win and this was your first visit to my blog, welcome! I hope you find something here to bring you back.
This week I'm gonna give away something different, but I'll announce it tomorrow. Stay tuned!

OMG! I'm so excited. Thanks so much :) On another note, I'm only 2 books deep into LKH's series. I've heard iffy things about this series but I haven't gotten that far yet so I'll keep reading until they get to be too much.
ReplyDeleteYou are SO awesome!! Really, Lisa--I can't tell you how much I loved receiving your comments (although they probably kept me looking at the computer too much instead of reading...shame on you!) Just kidding. You were the best cheerleader and I hope that next time you can participate and I can return to favor to YOU. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday to you.
I am glad that you are putting LKH away. I only wish that I had the strength of will to do it. :) They have been very disappointing for awhile now. I will be sure to let everyone know if they come back up to the original Anita level.
