*Drum Rolls*
Genevieve! Congrats. Email me at Sarahbear119(at)hotmail.com with address. Thanks
I am sure that there will be more contest soon and definitely one around June 25th... I wonder why. Also when I hit 100 followers on Blogger there will be a prize given away. I am at 94 now, so that should happen in a month or two. If you are a google reader follower comment, so I can add you to the list. I just got a big bag of library books. So that is my cue to leave.
Bye, Sarah.

Booking through Thursday(4)


I saw that National Library week is coming up in April, and that led to some questions. How often do you use your public library and how do you use it? Has the coffeehouse/bookstore replaced the library? Did you go to the library as a child? Do you have any particular memories of the library? Do you like sleek, modern, active libraries or the older, darker, quiet, cozy libraries?
I go to my library once to twice a week. I currently have fifty books or movies out at this time. I also going to my indie book store a lot. I went to the library as a kid and I remember grabbing picture books and later chapter books to read. I like the older libraries. They are more cozy and awesome. I also LOVE my library, no joke. It is so awesome and the people are sweet.

Library holds...

Yesterday, my mom went to the library. To get just two books on hold. It turns out that there were 10 and she didn't bring a bag. Whoops.
Today, I got a call and they said that I have 11 on hold. The books are all ones that I requested. So I am excited to get them. I have already finished Living Dead Girl by Elizabeth Scott, which I will review soon. I am now reading The Opposite of Invisible by Liz Gallagher, which is good so far and I also will review. I am excited to read all of these books.
I am going to be Nano-ing from 1pm to 10pm, tomorrow. I need to catch up, I am at 6,000 words.
I am also excited, because I had two comments from people that I don't know. Yay!
I am thinking about doing a contest in middle to late December to help with the fact that I have no room on my book shelf and I will probably get a few books for christmas. I now have two boxes under my bed and I don't think a third would work out.
Happy Reading!
Peace out, Sarah.
