The Maze Runner


The other day when I was in Borders, the clerk told me about "The Maze Runner". She said it was somewhat similiar to The Hunger Games.

So....here I go again. I'm buying it today, with my 40% off coupon I might add, and I'll let you know if it's worth the read.

To Halloween Party Or Not?

I know this is probably a stupid post, and I know what you're all going to say, but it's always good to have encouragement!

I'm "thinking" about going to a Single's Halloween party on Saturday. (The last time I hung out with these people was two years ago on Halloween, how funny!)

I know you're all thinking, "Well go, dummy", and yes, I want to, but..........

I'm 41, I'm not a 25ish-year old who just wants to party all the time. My friends from high school have children in college and on missions. I'm just over my partying days. I just want to stay home and read a book (like I'm telling you something you don't already know). But......

I guess I just need encouragement. It's so hard to kick my butt out of my cozy little home to go out and deal with all the crap of "trying" to make a better and happier (although not all the time, I realize) home. But as they say: nothing ventured, nothing gained, right? ....But oh, it's just so warm and safe in my own little corner....

Tara!


You have the correct answer to the bus question. But why? If you can come up with the same answer the pre-schoolers gave, you'll win a copy of Evermore!!!!

New Series to Read!!! :-)

I'm now into a new series, thanks to Rhiannon.......(I'm so addicted to reading, jeez.)

Anyway, it's "The Immortals" series by Alyson Noel. The first book reminds me a lot of Twilight, but by the time I read the second book, I wasn't even thinking about Twilight. It's a girly kind of book, love and all that good stuff. I don't really recommend it for men, but definitely all you ladies out there would really like it.

The first book is:

Evermore
-----------------------------------------------------

The second is:
Blue Moon ~ yes, I thought that was kind of weird, too, but it actually does have a meaning.

-----------------------------------------------------

The third book, which comes out around Thanksgiving and I CAN'T WAIT, is:

Shadowland

-----------------------------------------------------
I recommend you read them, especially Tara, Holly & Julie ~ they seem right up your alley!

These are Cool!

...but I picture them a little older. I know they're only 16, but in Catching Fire, they're 17... that's older.
The picture on my sidebar of them kissing is a little more along the lines of how I picture them, especially Peeta.

Where'd I Go????


Well, I'm still here, but extremely busy. I'm really sorry!!! Work has become ridiculous. I haven't even had the time to check my emails. Hopefully things will calm down soon and I'll be able to do the things I love again, like keeping up with my blogs!!
