The Friday 13th Bookish Buzz

Pin It

Welcome the the Friday the 13th edition of the Bookish Buzz. Don't step under any ladders or cross any black cats! I have a pretty busy weekend planned. I'm volunteering to help build our community playground. My girl is so excited about it. And of course Sunday is Father's Day. Happy Father's Day to all you Dads!

So, what is up:

*It's a big year for Anne. Can she break a record?

*Things to make you go hmmmm.... Random House buys staff Sony Readers.

*"I'm a storyteller. I'm not a literary writer and I never pretended to be." 40 years of Jackie Collins.

*300 year old bible returned to Nova Scotia. Hurray! (Even if the commenters are a bunch of butt munches)

*The history of Father's Day plus some ideas for Dad.

*As seen on Design Mom, Small Magazine. Devoted to all things small, it's a gorgeous looking online zine.

*Choose your fantasy: Carroll vs Tolkien.

*Own a blog? Blogged.com rates blogs on a scale of 1-10. book-a-rama is


Book-a-Rama at Blogged


Not bad but my inner perfectionist says, "Aw c'mon!"

*Another cute Etsy find, these bookmarks from Gorjuss in Scotland are so adorable. And free shipping too!

So that's what I got for this week. Later, folks.

  8. Nik & Carrie- Thanks! I'm so sore now.

    Marg, Teddy & Mrs S- Someone must have submitted mine. According to the site, blogs are rated by an editor:

    "Editor reviews are provided by professional editors who evaluate a blog based on the following criteria: Frequency of Updates, Relevance of Content, Site Design, and Writing Style."

    Trish- Yes, every summer the Anne musical is performed in Charlottetown.
