BEA'S BOOK NOOK "I can't imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once." C. S. Lewis “If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.” ― Oscar Wilde

Sunday Book Share #76

 

 I'm participating in The Sunday Post, hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer; Showcase Sunday hosted by Books, Biscuits and Tea; Stacking the Shelves, hosted by Tynga's Reviews, and Library Loot co-hosted by The Captive Reader and Silly Little Mischief that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library. All of these memes give book bloggers the chance to share print and digital books they've received, and posts and events at their blogs.

More snow, with sleet and ice this time; oh joy. I did get a day off of school out of it. Even so, it was a busy week at school, I had a lot of commitments. I also started physical therapy for my wrist and it's doing better, despite needing to shovel out my car. Monday is a holiday here in the US and I have the day off from school, which I'm looking forward to very much.

I found this photo at The Bookwyrm's Hoard and had to use it. :D


The Week In Review

Odd, interesting, or funny search phrases leading to the blog: Mostly it was the same search phrases involving catching cats and threesomes but there was one new one that made me blink -
"nook sex? in the comments section on the nook"

I had another excellent book week. Sometimes, I am a very fortunate blogger and reader. :)

I purchased the e-book, which I downloaded in December, but the signed, limited edition hard cover which I also ordered didn't arrive until now.

I bought the books below using gift cards and a coupon. I still have a dollar and change left on my gift cards and I still have a few titles in the series left to acquire. The author is a friend of mine; I knew Cara back before she was published or had a contract. She's a really nice lady.

Feeling a little deja vu? Last Sunday's post had the digital ARC of this book and then on Monday I received the print ARC from the publisher. :D

I reviewed Written In Red on Thursday and Friday this showed up, the next one in the series! The book arrived Friday evening and by Saturday morning I had finished it. :D *tired happy dancing*

  15. I had my snow days last week, now we are back to rain. I agree about curling up with a good book and watching the snow fall, it is perfect. I have got to read that Anne Bishop series. I am hearing outstanding things about it! Hope you enjoy your day off. Have a terrific week, Bea.
