Follow Hop 15July11

About Me:
I return follows but I would greatly appreciate it if you left a link in the comments to make it a bit easier on me.

I will be having a giveaway for FOUR YA books starting next Tuesday involving SIGNED books and an international component so be sure to stop by then to find out the details!




Q. "What do I do when I am not reading?"

I love TV [Burn Notice and White Collar!] and movies although I can read during if I want.  I also love puzzles, playing the viola, and I spend quite a bit of time on facebook...although I should be curbing that.

Q: "How/Where do you get your books? Do you buy them or go to the library? Is there a certain website you use like paperbackswap?"

I am a huge library fan and am very fortunate to have a great library with staff who order the books I request.  I also get a lot of books from Netgalley and GalleyGrab. I do still buy books but usually only after I've read and loved them.

  5. You are quite worldly, with a range of interests. I admire you for playing the viola. I try to play the guitar. I also love puzzles, jigsaws with over 500 pieces.

    New Follower! Enjoying my look around.

  17. Hi, I'm Izzy, and I'm stopping by your blog on the Blog Hop. I also spend too much time on the Internet (although my vice is Tumblr, not Facebook). I'm a huge library fan as well, and I use the interlibrary loan system every week.

  21. There is absolutely nothing wrong with too much Facebook ;)

    I think it is pretty cool that you play the viola.

    I don't watch much tv during the summer. I don't know why really.

  25. Viola? Thats pretty awesome, I once had the notion to learn the fiddle but nothing ever came of it cos I lack serious discipline when it comes to things like practice, way too easily distracted!
