Funny story:
My husband has been complaining that he didn't know what to get me for Christmas, so when we dropped by the book store at the mall the other day (we can't leave without at least dropping by to say hi to the books), I repeatedly said, "I want this one", "I need this one", I haven't read that one", "Ohh, this looks good" and the whole time the husband is standing beside me and acting like he is listening to me.
Later, as we are walking out to the car, he said, "Babe, I still don't have any clue what to get you for Christmas." I was like, REALLY? SMH - but oh how I do love that man!

This also happens to me all the time. I don't think my husband wants to feed my reading addiction!

I feel really lame. I got excited today when I noticed that my library system's Overdrive e-book catalog has a new feature. I can now "recommend" books. It looks like to me it's their way of seeing who is interested in what books. It allows me to recommend them and ask to be put on the holds list if the title becomes a digital library book!

Do not feel lame because I use that like nobodies business!!!! They actually get the books you recommend fairly quickly too!!

Oh, that's awesome! I better not go crazy on the recommending then. My TBR list has already exploded!

Someone should invent a function on Kindle that lets you Voice command "Turn Page"!!!!
I would pay to be able to do dish or cook dinner and not have to stop reading!!!

I'm completely with you on that idea, Barb!!! You need to suggest that to the Kindle folks and make it happen. :D
I started watching The Royals last night via amazon prime - and I love it! If you haven't seen it, it's a scripted show from E! that follows a fictional Royal family. It makes me want to binge watch it (i've only watched 2 episodes). It also makes me want to read
and


Season 1 is free on Amazon Prime - Season 2 is just now airing on E! This is going to cut in to my reading time for a bit (just until I get caught up!)
I need Book Recommendations for my 13 year old Step Niece for Christmas???? I'd feel weird getting her a book with too much romance (not sure her mom would like it)I'm thinking the Selection Trilogy??? Thoughts...

I think that's a great choice!!!!!


Oh i need to check that!! Thanks Barb!!

We should buddy read it next year....preferably before the movie release!

Sounds great to me! Who wants to pick which one we read first?

I'm so in! I've read probably half of the books too and they're all on my favorites list, so I would totally re-read them!!!
Can't wait to see what you pick first, Erika!!
