As it has been way too long since I have last posted, let's get right into it!
I am introducing Monday posts, which will hopefully be a new tradition. Let's see how this goes, as updating this blog often is not going as splendidly as I would like.
Back to the Monday Posts, which will feature
An Awesome Thing:
One of the first eBooks I bought for my Kobo was The Book of Awesome. It was.....awsome. (I couldn't resist!) I really enjoyed the book and I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun book that leaves you cheerful and thrilled with life. Once I had heard about The Book of (even more) Awesome I knew I had to buy it! This time, however, I decided to purchase a 'hard copy' of the book as one of the downfalls of eBooks is not being able to share them with friends and family. I have not started to read this book yet, but look for a review soon.
Monday Posts will feature an Awesome Thing from the website of author of these books, Neil Pasricha. Currently Neil is on #239, which means I will either be posting a huge amount of Monday Posts or possibly even featuring multiple Awesome Things. I will be featuring Awesome Things that I actually think are awesome, but be sure to check out the website for all.
I love doing this to people but I must admit that I do not appreciate being on the other end of this prank. Neil lists the three different versions that are possible, from Version 1 which features a "slow rolling drive away while the victim knocks on the window and pretends not to care" to Version 3, which involves the driver never returning! Regardless of which version that is used, locking people out of the car and pretending to drive away is awesome!
Monday Posts will also feature
Book Updates:
Right now I am just about the start one of two books that I have borrowed from the library. The first is Bedtime Story by Robert J. Wieserma and The Good Daughters by Joyce Maynard.
Bedtime Story is a book that I had seen many times in Chapters and while I pick it up every time I never actually buy it. The plot seems intriguing and I am very excited to begin reading it. A description of the book can be found here (I couldn't find a small enough description to include in this blog).
The Good Daughters was actually a book I had seen on the library site looking for books. I put my name on the waiting list what seems like forever ago so I hope this book is worth the wait! Information about the book can be found here (again, there was no short descriptions to be found).
Both books need to be returned in about twelve days so I need to be doing some serious reading this week, which should really not be too much of a problem. Ahhh, the joys of being finished school for the year and the job not starting until July.
I have just realized what a huge posting this is going to be!!! Yikes!! At least I am actually posting now, which is a huge improvement from the lack of posts for over a month now.
As this is a Monday Post I believe it would be fitting to end with this classic song about Mondays.
Monday, Monday
So good to me
Monday mornin, it was all I hoped it would be....
