Coming off a weekend of read-a-thon madness where I didn't (hardly) sleep and got almost no reading done. Go figure! This week I'm participating in the Bout of Books Read-a-Thon, which runs through Sunday. I know, such a sad, sad addiction. ;O)
EVENTS
I just announced the Bag of Bones (by Stephen King) read-a-long over at Castle Macabre. The television mini-series is set to air on December 11 and 12 and since it is one of my most favorite SK books, I thought a reread was greatly in order. For all the details and to sign-up, go HERE.
WHAT I'M READING
Last week:
Road from the West by Rosanne E. Lortz (my REVIEW)

Organized? glad I give you that impression but not sure what you think is organized so I can't give you any tips.
ReplyDeleteI loved Bag of Bones! I know I own it but I wouldn't be able to get my hands on it.
I'm considering your read-a-thon but I think school is going to get in the way :(
Header: why yes, that is a new header, thanks for noticing (it is a fairy reading nook from farmville!)
You do so well at those library sales. I'm almost envious of your ability there.
