Books DO Furnish a Room

And here is a book to prove it!  A book that is being added to my ever-growing-never-ending wishlist as I type.  It is what it is and I am what I am.

Bridesmaids, the movie

They say this isn't a "chick flick."  I beg to differ.  I enjoyed it thoroughly: laughing at the ridiculousness, chuckling at the inappropriate vulgarity and wallowing in that delightful bittersweet melancholy at the film's end.  I thought it was the perfect girl friend movie because that's what it was about: having a girl friend and being a girl friend. 

Good schufft!

suggestion

I just submitted a suggestion to AMAZON.com - wonder if they'll take my advice?  I think they should allow account holders to create a library reference on their website so we can track our books already owned.  Not only would this be beneficial to ME so I do not duplicate purchases (hate it when that happens!) but it would give them insight into their consumers as far as what subjects & materials they invest in, regardless of where purchased.  Win-win for all. 

Personally, I think it's a brilliant idea!

Kindle Quarterly Update

Kindell, the Kindle, is 5 months old, so it's time for a check-in to see how Kindell, the Kindle, is doing...

Kindell has 13 books and 6 apps installed.  No books have been read.  At all.  One app, Mahjong, is played frequently.  The other apps (Solitaire, Notepad, Dots & Boxes, Every Word & WordSearch) do not get much attention...

The books I've downloaded (not necessarily in order) are:

• Rooms by James L. Rubart
• Heat Wave by Richard Castle
• Hide in Plain Sight by Marta Perry
• Crush by Alan Jacobson
• Invisible by Lorena McCourtney
• Watchlist (multiple contributing authors)
• The Hangman's Daughter by Oliver Potzsch & Lee Chadeayne
• Spoilt by Joanne Ellis
• Saving Rachel by John Locke
• Heaven is for Real by Colton, Todd & Sonja Burpo
• Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
• In the Cards by Christine Schwartz

a blog to share

I am several things - a book lover & a decorator are 2 of them, so imagine my delight to happen upon a blog about the love of bookshelves, decorated bookshelves, decorated with books, of course!, and aptly named  BookshelfPorn...

Delightful eye candy, indeed!

adding to the "must read" list!

Not sure if I can wait until after my 161 project... thinking NOT.  Oh, no!

adding to the ever growing collection...

An autographed copy now sits proudly on the bookshelf (complete with inscription intended to inspire & motivate me to get off my butt & start writing!!!).  ~sigh~
