Guest Post – Authors Lunch for AAUW

aauwlogo Guest Post   Authors Lunch for AAUW

Today's Guest Post is written by a dear friend of mine, Lauralee!  She doesn't have her own blog (I know, crazy huh!?!)  But I think maybe after writing this guest post for me, I can talk her into getting her own.  We've known each other for *#&*  years and I know that Lauralee has a lot of great things to say.  Which is why when I found out she was going to (and helped put on) this Author's Lunch for AAUW, I HAD to talk her into writing a guest blog post for me.  This fits in perfectly with the theme of this blog.  I hope you'll enjoy learning about the AAUW and getting to know Lauralee a little bit.  Please make her feel welcome!

Mailbox Monday

MailboxMonday Mailbox Monday

Welcome to the first edition of Mailbox Monday.  What you'll find here is a collection of all the books, and sometimes other items as well, that I have received in the mail.  Mail being both my inbox and my "in real life" mail box.  I have lots of different sources where I get my books from, so I'm almost always getting new books to read.  Mondays I"ll be listing them so you'll get a chance to get a little excited about what's coming up in the next few months of reviews!  I know that every time our door bell rings during the day I get all excited, because I know I'm getting something good!  (Yes, I know it's not Monday, but... well I was really tired yesterday and busy with my "regular job", so this was the first I could get it done.  And I didn't want to wait until next Monday to post.)

Something New

So I'm not happy with the amount (or lack there of) of posting I'm doing on this blog.  I've got a ton of books that I"m reading, but inbetween the ones I've read and the ones I"m reading, there's a lot of down time for the blog.  So I'd like to post more here and keep all of you readers happy and coming back!  So here's what I"m going to do.....

It's Friday! Time for another Book Blogger HOP!!

This is for ALL BOOK BLOGGERS (NEW AND OLD) and READERS! Let's make some new friends and have fun! It's FRIDAY!!!
ABOUT THE HOP:
In the spirit of the Friday Follow, I (Crazy For Books) thought it would be cool to do a Book Blogger Hop to give us all book bloggers and readers a chance to connect and find new blogs that we may be missing out on! So, I created this weekly BOOK PARTY where book bloggers and readers can connect to find new blogs to read, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs that they may not know existed! So, grab the logo, post about the Hop on your blog, and start PARTYING!!

How Many Books Do You Read?

4414650 illustration 200x300 How Many Books Do You Read?

I literally, have a stack of about 12 books that I need to read between now and the end of June.  So to try and make sure I read them all, I"m reading 3 books right now.  I have one here at my work desk that I read in between working and blogging.  I have one downstairs in the living room that I read when I'm not watching TV.  And finally I have one in my bedroom that I read before going to sleep.

Loving The Mail Lately

Lately I"ve been getting more and more books in the mail.  I've got my reading list for the next 3 months taken care of with a few more books on the way!  So far I'm very happy with all the books I"m getting!

Be prepared!  I've got a giveaway coming up really soon!  So just keep your eyes out for the announcement of the book giveaway!

Also, I'm looking for people who might  be interested in guest posting here.  Have you read a book lately that you think others should know about?  Then please fill out the contact form and let me know about it.  If you have a blog, then I'll ad your button and a link to your blog on the side bar and in the post.  Any kind of book is welcome!

Hope you're all having a wonderful first day of spring!
