Mailbox Monday

MailboxMonday Mailbox Monday

Here are a few of the books that I've received in the mail this last week.  All of these books will be reviewed over the next month and there is even another giveaway!  WOOT!  All of these books were sent to me from my various sources.  They are given for review purposes but all opinions are 100% my own and always will be!  Hope you'll come back too see the reviews of these books!

Freebie Friday – Free Ebooks

getfreeebooks Freebie Friday   Free Ebooks

Here's another great free resource to find some interesting books.  They aren't going to be books or maybe even authors you've heard of before, but sometimes that can be fun.  This site offers several hundred, legally downloadable ebooks that they have personally found across the net.  It's a good collection and well... it's FREE!  LOL!

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.)

Teen Thursday

Teen Thursday

As my boys got older, it got a little harder for me to find books that were just right for them.  One, being boys, there's really not a lot of books out there for them... at least not as teenagers.  Most of the books that are for teenagers are for teen girls... romance,  main character is a girl, and girly plots.   Not really what teen boys want to read.  So when I come across some good books for my boys, I nearly shove them down their throats.  LOL!  Well not literally.  So here are a few of those books that I have given to my sons to read and some that are good for girls too.

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.
