Book Buying Binge

Two Amazon orders and one eharlequin order later, it’s obvious that A. I’m on a book binge, and B. I’ll do just about anything to avoid my current proposal. I haven’t bought many print books lately. I’ve been buying a lot of ebooks, though. I seem to go in cycles where I’ll find a lot of one or the other that intrigue me, but for some reason it never happens concurrently.

I’m in a rut with ebooks. I’ve read a few really good ones lately, and I’ll be talking about them next week over at Writeminded, but on the whole, I’m just not feeling the love with ebooks lately. Dunno if it’s me, if it’s just a dry spell or I’m just being pickier than I used to be.

I could say the same for print books, too, though. It’s been a long time since I bought a print book much less bookS. But Im hoping when my three boxes come in, I’ll find something I love within those pages. :chowtime:

And for another odd question, because, well, I’m odd, have you ever picked up a book, read it then thought it was the most horrid thing ever, but for some inexplicable reason you’ll actually buy the next one in the series or the next one out by that author? Uhm because this has happened to me. Honestly, the first book I picked up by this author, I was incredulous. It was that bad. But I still read it, even while snorting through some of the more ridiculous passages. I have no explanation for why I bought more or while I’ll buy the next one when it’s out. Maybe I’m a masochist? I still think they’re ridiculous but I’m still buying them. :idontknow:

Maybe I should get out more.

Crispy Feet

Spent Sunday at the beach swimming and fishing. :fishing: The weather was simply gorgeous. The water temp was perfect. Not too hot, not too cold. We caught a bunch of sharks, so that was fun, and I even remembered to wear sunblock. For the most part.

THe tops of my feet are SO burnt. :help:

Tonight we’re going to grill steaks and celebrate the release of Colters’ Woman, which as you probably guessed releases tonight! :cheer:

In the meantime, I’ve got a really smart assed hero to see about.
