Friday Bookish Buzz: Booking the Weekend

Pin It

funny pictures - Yeah, my name is Mr. Snuggles...  ...wanna make something of it?!?

Big book weekend. First, the library sale is this weekend. And I will be there, looking for deals. Wish me luck! Second, it's Dewey's Readathon. Wahoo! I signed up at the last minute. Not sure how much reading I'll get in. The hubs is sick. He won't be wanting to look after things here while I read. It is a good excuse to buy lots of snacks.

Here's the book news:

*These are your Hunger Games boys: Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth.

*If I had a hammer... Construction worker wins poetry prize.

*Want to see some authors at their typewriters? Here they are.

*Kate Bush finally allowed to use Ulysses quotes in song. Just when you thought you couldn't get enough of Joyce.

*Some new Dr Seuss for your babies.

*Bossypants by Tina Fey, a new arrival at the bookstores. Me Want.

*Franzen. Beaten by a girl. Again. Oh noes!

*Etsy Love: Lots of cute reading related prints from Jo Bozarth Illustration but I like Night Read the most.

Have a good one! If you're doing the Readathon, hope your books are exciting.

  1. Good luck at your library sale! We have one coming up in a couple weeks as well.

    Glad you are joining in on the fun. I'm looking forward to it, especially since I am hosting the last 4 hours.

    What are you going to be reading tomorrow?

  2. I love the author/typewriter photos. There's something so wonderful about a typewriter and now everyone uses computers. Sigh. Enjoy the read-a-thon. I'm participating for the first time this year!

  3. Wish I could do the read-a-thon, but had already planned a LOTR movie marathon weekend with my kiddoes. :) Good luck at the library sale - can't wait to see your loot.
