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:

What are you listening to right now?

My Answer:

FOX News

From Java’s blog:
Are you a blogger over 40? Yeah, welcome to the club!

  In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and find new book-related blogs that we may be missing out on! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, 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 HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list below!!
  The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week, so if you don’t have time to Hop today, come back later and join the fun! This is a weekly event! And stop back throughout the weekend to see all the new blogs that are added! We get over 200 links every week!!
  Your blog should have content related to books, including, but not limited to book reviews.
  If you start following someone through the Hop, leave a comment on their blog to let them know! Stop back during the week to see other blogs that are added! And, most importantly, the idea is to HAVE FUN!!

This week’s Question:
“Tell us about one of your posts from this week and give us a link so we can read it (review or otherwise)!”

My Answer:
It would be my weekly event entitled Sunday’s Shining Star, whereas a blogger in our community is a guest for the day and is interviewed.  There has been  positive feedback and I love getting to know those bloggers a bit better that have been showcased over the past few Sunday’s.

   Nobody realizes that the family fortune has long since disappeared, and a determinedly single woman like Georgia needs an alternative, and discreet, means of income. In Georgia’s case it is six well-heeled lovers-one for each day of the week, with Mondays off-none of whom knows about the others.
   But when the married preacher who has been coming to call (Saturdays) decides to confess their affair in front of the whole congregation, Georgia must take drastic measures to stop him. In GEORGIA BOTTOMS, Mark Childress proves once again his unmistakable skill for combining the hilarious and the absurd to reveal the inner workings of the rebellious human heart.

Giveaway copies are supplied and shipped to winners via publisher,
agent and/or author. This blog hosts the giveaway on behalf of the
above. I received a copy of this book, at no charge to me, in
exchange for my honest review. No items that I receive are
ever sold…they are kept by me, or given to family and/or friends.
I am not responsible for lost or damaged books that are shipped
from agents. I reserve the right to disqualify/delete any entries
if rules of giveaway are not followed.



Which authors have you been lucky enough to discover at the very beginning of their careers?
And, if you’ve never had that chance, which author do you WISH you’d been able to discover at the very beginning?
My Answer:
Sorry, I know I sound like a broken record but I’ll add two more names today.  But first is Vincent Zandri.  I read Moonlight Falls and was hooked.  Two other authors that I read last year am anxiously awaiting their next books are Bill Walker A Note From An Old Acquaintance and Sara Robinson, which was a total surprise because I usually don’t read memoirs but for some reson, this one looked interesting and I really liked her writing style for Love Always, Hobby and Jessie.

From Lori’s site:
It struck me recently how much time I spend on this computer every day, blogging, chatting or playing games on Facebook, emailing friends and relatives, making cards and calendars, etc. etc. etc.
We depend on each other for book reviews, giveaways, encouragement, friendship, but how well do we really know each other?
So that is what this meme is all about, getting to know each other.
WEEK 24 QUESTIONS
1. Did you watch the Super Bowl? If yes, which part did you like the best, the game, the halftime show, the commercials and did you notice the mistake made with the National Anthem?
     Sorry Lori….but….No…slept right through it.  When the boys lived home we hosted a party every year for all their friends but now with them out of state, it was very, very quiet.
2. I joined a new meme this week called “Monday’s Music Moves Me”, this month’s theme is love songs, Do you have a favorite love song?
    Billy Joel’s  Love You Just The Way You Are
3. How many blog challenges have you entered this year?
    Think I am up to about 17ish but am thinking there will be more with mini challenges throughout the year, that’s why Gina from Hott Books and I started a challenge for Challenge Addicts.  And she is WAY beyond my measly 17!!!
