Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
*Grab your current read
*Open to a random page
*Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
*BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
*Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My Teaser:
  In silence, Mahoud followed at what could hardly be described a discreet distance.  The estrangement from his friends and neighbors was an unbearable agony, worse than any he had ever experienced.

Today’s Musing Monday question is:
 Do you frequent second hand book stores? Have you ever bought a book home only to find anything interesting within their pages?
  The answer is Yes and I would suspect all book addicts have located a second hand book store where they live.  I could spend hours in the one I visit.  The only problem I have is I tend to bring home more books than I traded even though I promised myself that I have enough books on my shelves already.  To my surprise I did find one treasure in a book and it was a 4 leaf clover wrapped in saran wrap !!!!!

Slapdash Sunday

Good Morning All.  It is another summer like day in New England.  Our windows are opened, the birds are chirping, hubby and I have read the paper with our mugs of coffee.  Just a perfect Sunday morning.  And now onto Sunday’s meme:

Slapdash Sunday is a day for your proverbial week ‘leftovers.’ Is there something you wanted to say, but just forgot? Is there something you want to write about, but isn’t worth a whole page? Do you have a random thought, funny or otherwise that needs to be written down?
That is what Slapdash Sunday is for!
  This past week I started resubscribing to book blog email newsletters.  I had subscribed to so many that I feared my mailbox would be filled in a matter of days while I was in the hospital.  So prior to being admitted, I unsubscribed.  So here are my questions:

Photobucket
How many email newsletters do you subscribe to?  What makes you choose one over another?  Or do you not subscribe to any and just use your google reader to see whats going on in book blogging land? 
What are your thoughts on this topic? Let’s have a SlapdashPhotobucket !!!!!
