- Stephen and Tabitha King pledge $3 million to Bangor Public Library in Maine If I had the money I would help out some libraries as well. Too bad I don't. :( On the bright side, it is really awesome what they are doing and I applaud them.
- This is a new website that Buckling Bookshelves introduced me to... Recaptains: Saving Series One Book at a Time. A couple of weeks ago I wrote a blog post Previously On...TV Shows Get Recaps. Why Not Books? discussing my horrible memory when it comes to picking up where a series or trilogy left off. I can never remember what happened in the previous books and that frustrates me more than anything. This new website recaps those pesky books! Awesome right?
BLOG POSTS
- Re-reading: Yea or Nay? I am always re-reading books when I can, but as of late it seems like I never have the time. Do you like to re-read books? Either way you should check out this fun and interesting discussion post.
- Are you loyal to only one genre? Ever get burned out? I love reading a lot of different genres, but on occasion I have stuck to one for too long and I always seem to regret it. What about you? Head over to the Caffeinated Book Reviewer and join in on the discussion.

ReplyDeleteI totally want to have a secret bookcase tunnel reading lair!
DeleteI love to re-read, but like you, I don't have time to do it much anymore.
ReplyDeleteThat reading lair is AWESOME.
And thanks for the shout-out! Glad to help -- that site really is perfect for those of us who don't have time to re-read. I'm sure their archive of titles with continue to grow, especially if other bloggers contribute.
You rock for introducing me to that site. I wish I could re-read the previous books in the series before a new one comes out but I don't always have the time.
DeleteOne day I will have my own reading lair...I'm determined.
