review of Anything Goes:
"Reasons to listen to John Barrowman read his autobiography: He laughs. He sings. He does funny voices. He does his own Scottish accent. He gets emotional. It's a very anecdotal book, and it's lovely to hear him tell these stories himself. T...more " | |
Tasha's favorite quotes
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."
— Dr. Seuss
— Dr. Seuss
"It's a beautiful religion and I wish I understood it more. No, I don't want to understand it all. It's beautiful because it's always a mystery. Sometimes I say I don't believe in God and Jesus and Mary. I'm a bad Catholic because I miss mass once in a while and I grumble when, at confession, I get a heavy penance for something I couldn't help doing. But good or bad, I am a Catholic and I'll never be anything else.
Of course, I didn't ask to be born Catholic, no more than I asked to be born American. But I'm glad it turned out that I'm both these things."

Hey Tasha,
Will you check out my synopsis for my book!
Hit me back and let me know what you think and if it sounds like something you would like on your shelf ~,~
Life Is Never Perfect, Even For These Four Women
New Novel tells the dramatic stories of four young ladies seeking happiness and satisfaction in an imperfect world
Never Say Never follows the enduring journeys of four extraordinary women; from early adolescence into early adulthood. Through the pages of this work, readers will meet an unforgettable quartet ~ Amanda, a successful doctor, LaNae an entrepreneur, Monique, a hairstylist, and Celeste, an educator ~ and through each of their stories, they will witness the obstacles that comes with careers, their own search for meaning and happiness, and ultimately discover their relationships that evolve around family, friendship and love. Through friendship, these women grow and evolve, both individually and collectively.

Never Say Never... characters are faced with life’s disappointments, growing pains, heartfelt moments, true friendship, revenge, complex confusion, blessings and love that abides. Each character will have to make a decision that will shape their future for the rest of their lives.
The author provides a two-way mirror, one side, the characters and the other side, Maybe You.
A revelation packed storyline sure to hold your attention.
On a scale of 1-4, my rating of Never Say Never….. is a 4

I recommend this book because it is not only about friendship. It shows that if you have faith and trust in God, you can accomplish anything. Ms Thomas did an excellent job with this novel. This is not your average urban book but you will not be able to put it down. Will these ladies be able to find love and happiness? Will there past be there demise?
I give this book 5 Stars

Thank you for accepting my friend request! I took a look at your shelves, lots of good books...You are much braver than I am, I still can't read a serious thriller by James Patterson...I'm such a scaredy-cat!

I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me yesterday. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened to create so many messages. Some weird glitch.
Argh...this is terrible...
Again, I'm very sorry.

Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats.
-Jeremy :)
P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Hi Tasha!
Here’s wishing you a yippee-filled Yuletime overflowing with yard-long yams, yapping yoyo-yanking yetis, yak-milk yeast-cakes, and yellow yarn-yielding year-end yard-gnomes.
-Jeremy :)
Thanks so much for sharing, Tasha! I've never read either of those, so I'll definitely check them out.
Here's wishing you a wonderful weekend.
Happytimes,
Jeremy :)
Thanks for the friendship, Tasha! If you don't mind sharing--I was wondering, what's your favorite novel? Or novels?
Here’s wishing you a terrific Tuesday, filled with treasured treats, tremendous tomfoolery, and tiny triangular trout tracks.
Happytimes,
Jeremy :)
PS--if you end up checking out my novel, or any of my other work, I'd love to hear what you think.
