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 #68

 
 

 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 The Adventures of an Intrepid Reader 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.

It's almost Christmas! One more day until vacation!! My school is open Monday and then closed until January 2nd. I am so ready for a break.Over the break, I'll be reading, relaxing and car shopping. I'm not looking forward to that last one but I think my current car is on its last legs so I need to look around. What are you all doing for the holidays?

Last week was unusually warm for December in New England, temps were in the 50s! But we're supposed to get snow tonight and tomorrow morning and chilly temps. Brrrr. I want the 50s back. :D I took some time to purge some books and donate them so instead of collecting dust in my living room, now they're being used and appreciated. :) Also, my injured wrist is almost 100% better. On the downside, I was sick again last week and my brand new cell phone decided that it didn't want to actually work as a phone. I couldn't make or receive calls. Since I don't have a land line, that was a bad situation. It was nice to discover though that I had friends willing to call 911 when they couldn't get hold of me. :)

Oy, last week was miserable with the intestinal bug, more car troubles, an injured wrist, and today is my aunt's memorial service but I can't be there. You can see how off my game I was last week by the lack of reviews posted. I have a bunch that need writing and posting so, more reviews coming, I promise. This week HAS to be better, right? Well, I did pick up a new editing client last week, and this week I am only working Tuesday and Wednesday thanks to the Thanksgiving holiday, so there is that. :)

And to everyone who celebrates,


HAPPY THANKSGIVING! 

Have a safe, joyous day with family or friends.
