Can You Guess the Riddle?

Hey guys, I posted Neef's riddle on my other blog. I'm sure one of you will be clever enough to figure out what it is! Please go see!

Lady T is Awesome!

I swear I meet the nicest people thanks to blogging! Lady T over at Living Read Girl offered to get me an autographed book by Carrie Vaughn while she was at Comic Con. Needless to say I was SO excited and when she had sent it to me, she said that she had the book and "a few other goodies." Now, I've never been to Comic Con (being that it's held in New York and I live in Mississippi) but I do know they give out bookmarks and pins- which she did send too- but look at all the goodies she sent me! In that teeny box!I'm still amazed, isn't she awesome?!

I'm Being Spotlighted!

Just a quick heads-up guys, but Maw from Maw Books Blog is featuring me in a Readers Spotlight! I'm not that interesting but she did ask some very good questions while interviewing me!

Library Loot 7

Last week I picked up quite a few things at the library that immediately dug into. I watched Because of Winn-Dixie, Treasure Planet, & The Adventures of Greyfriars Bobby then I read Dark Harvest by Lynda Hilburn, Plum Spooky by Janet Evanovich, & The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan. Now I'm looking forward to digging into these new things:

Musing Monday- Reading

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about the reading……

When reading do you read every word? Do you ever skip chapters or skim over parts? (question curtesy of Wendy)

Oh I used to have such a hard time keeping myself from skipping ahead while reading and it would take me so much time to go back and try to figure out what I hadn't read. Finally I found a solution- bookmarks!

I just use a bookmark and go down line by line and it keeps me on track and my eyes can't stray down to see what happens next in a really suspenseful moment. It really helps and I finish the books so much faster too since I'm not re-reading sections constantly.
