And I think that I;m ready to try and read The Bone People again.

It's really the only store here in the area. I am also really keen to find out about the challenge blog you are creating and am eager to see the announcement. It's neat that you got a new MeEwan, even though it was a little pricey. I have a few of his on my shelf that I need to get to!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-27103666316204443902011-06-26T13:43:21.251-04:002011-06-26T13:43:21.251-04:00I'm sorry I missed Save Bookstores Day yesterd...I'm sorry I missed Save Bookstores Day yesterday but will make up for it today by going and buying some books from my library's used bookstore.

The best I can come up with close to me is the AAUW (American Association of University Women) Used Book Sale held at one of our huge high schools. It's still pretty good, though!<br /><br />I remember how long Caramelo is. Good, but long. I think my favorite Cisneros book is Woman Hollering Creek...a collection of unforgettable short stories. Glad you got a great McEwan!Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-46323639187420512172011-06-26T10:29:42.985-04:002011-06-26T10:29:42.985-04:00Good weekend so far...despite the rain and it not ...Good weekend so far...despite the rain and it not looking too promising out there right now. However, I've gotten in some reading and plan to get some more in today, plus reading all these wonderful Sunday Salon posts! :) <br /><br />I'd love to join your challenge, but I'm involved in a few already and am having a hard time keeping up with them...so....<br /><br />...that doesn't mean I won't let others know about your challenge when you start it. I'll still help you promote it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-37258745505651804182011-06-26T10:18:23.207-04:002011-06-26T10:18:23.207-04:00How did I miss Save Bookstores day?!

Although when I was overseas, I had not much luck with them, being surrounded by friendly faces 24/7. <br /><br />I bicycled through the Cotswolds years ago (when I was in a wee bit better shape) and was totally charmed by the place. It was out of a storybook. I can't wait to hear what you think of the book! <br />Happy Sunday...Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.com
