Friday Blog Hop (3 of 4)

Photobucket
Hosted by Jennifer from CRAZY FOR BOOKS 
 Here are the instuctions from her site:

   Every day I seem to find another book blog that I start following. In the spirit of the Friday Follow, I thought it would be cool to do a Book Blog Hop to give us all bookies a chance to connect and find new blogs that we may be missing out on! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs that they may not know existed!
   So, if you’d like to participate, just repost this on your blog, sign MckLinky on her site, and check out other blogs in MckLinky! Let’s connect and make new book bloggy friends!! So, if you consider yourself a book blogger, come join the fun!
   Pretty please – Your blog should have content related to books, including, but not limited to book reviews.

NEW BOOK BLOGGER HOP TWIST!!

(in your own blog hop post on your own blog – not in the linky below, please!!!)
Hi…my name is Cheryl.  After a time of stalking and learning about this book blogging world, that appeared to be so much fun, I wanted to be part of the neighborhood where there were so many people who wanted to talk about books.  I am not surrounded by readers in real life where I could discuss a great book I had read, but here in bloggy land, there are so many friends that understand the love of books.

Aloha Friday (2 of 4)

FRIDAY
Photobucket
Hosted by An Island Life

From An Island Life:
   In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
   If you’d like to participate, visit An Island Life answer the question and then post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:
What are your 3 favorite things to cook on the grill during the summer
My Answer:
For me it would be tuna steaks, steak kabobs and of course, cheeseburgers.

4. Hope I read more books in July.
5. In the town where I was born, there was a tv show named for it and was the setting for.

Today’s Topic:
Name a book or author that you truly wanted to love but left you disappointed. (And, of course, explain why.)
My Response:
A hard question this week.  Off hand I can only think of 3 answers.  One being Carol Higgins Clark, I tried reading one of her books years ago, thinking her books would be similar to her mother’s, but remember being quite disappointed.  So much so that I never did finish the book.  Two, recently I tried reading Nancy Grace’s Eleventh Victim, especially with all the hype, got it from the library and another one I set aside.  And third,  would be any book that I start, read 1/3 into it and have to put it down.
