reading a good book with a furchild by my side
E.H On Books and More asks us this week to talk about the authors we love:
Tell your readers what is it about “an” author that you are most passionate about, that have you coming back for more from them, following their every blog post – literally blackmailing people to read their books?
Who are some of [...]
Here is what Literary Escapism writes:
For the second year running, welcome to the Weekly Geeks Book Bloggers Top 10 of 2009.
You always see these “Top Whatever” lists that the newspapers/publishers put out and, for a second year in a row, we the book bloggers are going to put out our own Top 10 list. This [...]
Today’s Weekly Geeks seems like just what I need – it is all about The Tools of the Trade…or how we maintain our blogs. I will be out reading other bloggers’ tips for organization to be sure.

Book blogging, as a concept, is essentially pretty simple: If you have Internet access and an opinion about [...]
This week’s Weekly Geeks post could not have come at a more appropriate time for me.
Unfinished Person writes about the hectic pace of blogging, especially after a busy week. She writes:

Are you a global reader? How many countries have you “visited” in your reading? What are your favorite places or cultures to read about? Can you recommend particularly good books about certain regions, countries or continents? How [...]
This week’s Weekly Geeks is inspired by Sheri at A Novel Menagerie who writes:

This week’s geek post is all about guilty pleasures:
What’s your non-reading guilty pleasure?
Trashy TV?
Trashier movies?
Junk food?
I have a few guilty pleasures. My job can be pretty intense – I work with people all day answering questions and problem solving…so by the end of the day I am ready to just zone out, not think, [...]
Posted by Chris: This week’s Weekly Geek is inspired by Dewey’s Knit-a-Long, a mini challenge of Dewey’s Reading Challenge. Dewey had other passions besides reading and blogging. Knitting was one of them. This made me think, what are the Weekly Geek’s other passions?
So this week it is all about sharing other passions and interests…
Animals
All [...]
In the third Weekly Geeks of 2009, it is all about the classics. Ali is defining classics as anything 100 years old or older – I’m going to be more liberal with the definition because I have some great classics to share with you which were written in the 1930s.
1) How do you feel [...]
I am late to this one – please forgive me, but I ended up sick with the flu this week and spent three days flat on my back. My husband said he knew I was really sick when I did not pick up a book for that entire time! Anyway, I’m back and just [...]
