The Sunday Salon (3)

Happy Sunday, everyone!

I only have time to post a few things today. And unfortunately, posting will be semi-light this week, because I have to go out of town to a funeral. But here are the reading highlights from my week.

I finished FINNY on Tuesday. My review will appear this Thursday on the TLC blog tour.

I’ll try to get the third installment of Literature 101 on “setting” up on Wednesday, but I can’t guarantee it. If it doesn’t appear this Wednesday, it’ll definitely go up next week.

I’m wrapping up some judging for BBAW this week, too! Can’t wait for the festivities to begin.

Oh, and my wedding anniversary is today, and my darling husband of eight years got me a Kindle! It’s back-ordered at the moment, but I can’t wait to get it! What book should I read on it first?

Happy anniversary and ditto, Bermudaonion’s comments on having fun with the new toy.

My vote is for Mockingjay. You’ve probably read the first two, right?

Gosh! Everyone is getting Kindle’s or Nook’s these days. The craze must be taking hold suddenly. I’m still not sure about the whole thing.

Happy anniversary! Mine is Wednesday. 23 years! :)

I’m getting ready to start reading Finny…..it’s beakoning to me (really, it is!) via it’s cover. And have fun with the Kindle! Remember: you always remember your first Kindle book, so choose carefully, LOL. (Mine was Pride & Prejuidice & Zombies…..what on earth was I thinking???)

Kathy – Thanks!

Christina – I’m excited, but I haven’t gotten it yet. :(

Unfinishedperson – I just finished MOCKINGJAY in print. I don’t have the Kindle yet. Excellent suggestion though.

Robbie – Thank you.

Suey – The prices are pretty irresistible! I’ll be interested to see how it affects my reading habits.

Michele – I hope you like FINNY – the cover is great. I still don’t have my Kindle, so the first book hasn’t been determined. I love that your first was P&P&Z!
