Supporting my BOD- Books Obsession Disorder (6)

Today I purchase some books form a new bookstore on South Padre Island. This book store is right around the corner from me. Since I live in Brownsville it only take me 20-30 minutes to get there. Depending on the traffic. But since I go to the Island alot, I thought why not? This bookstore is awesome. it is called Paragraphs Books. The owners are super sweet in getting what I need, and of course are very friendly. If you are ever in the South Padre Island area go check it out. Or you can check out there blog at http://www.paragraphsbooks.com/ It will not disappoint you.

What is the first novel you have ever read?

So the other day my mother brings me my books I had when I was kid. Now, I knew I read a lot, but I had no idea I had read that much. I went digging through the box and took out the first novel I ever read. Here it is: Title: Winnie-The Pooh Author: A.A. Milne Decorations: Ernest H. Shepard Publisher: Dutton Pages: 161 I read this in third grade for a program in my school called Book It. You had to read a certain amount of books a week. If you reach the goal, you got a coupon for a free personal pan pizza at Pizza Hut. I also believe this was the start of my chubby years. I loved the reading, but the food I say made me fat. Anywho…………… Whats was your first novel that you read? Title? Author? How old were you? Please share your...

Blogging and Tips

I just wanted again to say thanks to all of my fellow bloggers. I have been blogging for only a little over a month now and the response I gotten has been so good. I never thought I get such a response. While I’ve have been reading books for a long time, blogging I am barely getting use too. I gotten some tips and tricks learning my way around so I thought I share some with you. 1. Blog about something you love!  You can’t blog about something you don’t like or do. 2. Design your blog to match your blog name. I’ve visited a couple of blogs and they just don’t look right. Design it to your name or genre. And don’t be afraid to try something new. You never know, it may look better than what you thought. I design my blog using...

The Ice Hotel by MC Foley Status: Received for honest review “A family, reeling from their eldest son’s death, escapes to the Ice Hotel, where an age-old, arctic magic connects this world to the next… To twin siblings Izzie and Poe McGarity, big brother Rossa is not just the eldest of three children. He is a hero, a leader, a king. Or rather… he was a king. Before his mistake. Before he died. Haunted by visions of Rossa wherever they turn, the twins and their parents accept an invitation to the legendary Ice Hotel, an enormous structure built entirely from snow and ice, thousands of miles to the north, in the Arctic Circle. What the grief-stricken McGaritys don’t know, is that the Ice Hotel will not only bring them face to face with...
