Who? What? Where? (8)

Hi guys!

Welcome back to the place that aims to be the bookish break in your day each and EVERY day....Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.

Today we're taking a break from the reviews to explore my current read in progress (or rather the book I'm about to open gingerly to avoid breaking the spine) in a NEW and FUN way.  If you haven't heard of this MEME before, be prepared to share because it's a whole lot of bookish goodness in a neat and tidy little blog post package.  Ready?  Here we go!

Otis Dooda:  Strange But True
by
Ellen Potter



I'm with Otis Dooda in New York City hearing all the plays on his name he's suffered through over the years and anticipating more of the same in his family's new home.




Okay, so not much to go on yet.  Just why we moved isn't apparent but then again I did JUST open the book.  (Finished the other last night which ironically had something to do with New York as well...hmm.  Fate?  Is that YOU?)

Hi guys!

Welcome back to the place that aims to be the bookish break in your day each and EVERY day....Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.

Busy week as usual and filled with ups, downs, and in-betweens but hey...we're readers!  We want to escape our current sitch and lack the means to do so physically, mentally with a book is TOTALLY the way to go.  ^_^  This week I've got two in progress reads but I'm splitting the difference by featuring one here and one on my teaser post (feel free to check it out after this one for more fun!).  Ready?  Here we go!

Right now, I'm with Maya (or is it Sarah?  Dun dun dunnn....) and Derek (ooh, la la! Tres chic geek!) in a Franco-American cafe on California Street having a little breakfast after a trek/carry up a hill to a FABULOUS view and a roll down same said hill.  We're now discussing the events that just transpired at the unveiling and Maya/Sarah's past while trying to get Derek to open up about his life beyond hid techie kingdom and (unsuccessfully) trying to avoid becoming any more enamored with him.  ^_^

Hi guys!

Welcome back to the place that aims to be the bookish break in your day each and EVERY day....Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.

This week has been a hectic one in my neck of the woods but it held its own surprises as well.  Just found out yesterday that we may be getting a pretty cool visitor to job 2 in the coming weeks, a YA author many of you know and love (including myself!).  Mum's the word right now til the details work themselves out, but suffice it to say, I'm TOTALLY excited.  ^_^  Anywho...time to participate in that weekly MEME that I truly love but seldom have chance to join...

Today, I've just arrived in Sand Castle Bay with Emily and her eldest sister Samantha to help our grandmother Cora Jane clean up the storm damage at the restaurant, and we're taking in the "scenery"...*ahem*...whose name happens to be Boone Dorsett and her once-upon-a-time knight in not-so-shiny-armor.  Good thing she's over him, right? Yeah....

Hi guys!

Welcome back to the place to be when the need to read comes a knocking...Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.

For those of you that follow me on Twitter, you might have seen my afternoon of "wonderment" yesterday...or not; we all get busy sometimes.  ^_^  Yeah, I totally think the full moon had something to do with it but hey, it's a new day and I'm so calling it MINE.  That's right, day.  I OWN YOU.    ^-^  That being said, how's about a little bookish fun?

In my first read, I'm currently in New York at a book signing with our rising star publicist Kate Mitchell.   Only problem is, the event seems to have been set up for failure!  Really...even for the newest name in the business with the smallest current following, you HAVE to order more than 20 copies!  *o*  Will she get the extra copies in time for the rabid fans lined up outside?  Will she find out what REALLY happened to create the hubbub in the first place?  We shall see....

In my second read in progress, I'm in our local church with Scarlette and Mother, along with the rest of the community, as the Bishop makes a surprise visit to our village and basically says that the attacks from the Beast are our own doing...penance for our sins...and those that are the "worst" (as in those attacked and the families of the attacked) need to be prayed for most.  Um, yeah...pretty sure there's more to the creature than "God's will"...gheesh!  The conclusions people will jump to when dealing with the unknown.

Hi there!

Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers...the place to be to satisfy your sweet tooth, for READING that is. 

It's been a bit of a whirlwind week thus far what with all the reviewing, blog touring, contests and what not.  Isn't it funny how the "what not" is what gets you in the end?  Anywho...I've taking a MEME break today and participating in that fabulous pop up that you've been seeing for the past month or two, created by a fabulous bloggy friend.  Ready to indulge in my latest read?  It'll be a surprise, I guarantee.

I am in the Finger Lakes region of New York, heading back to the old homestead, Blue Heron Vineyard, with Faith Holland and her trusty pal Blue (he's a Golden Retriever).  We've just been harassed by Levi the town police Chief (who is easy on the eyes but my word is he a power tripper!) as we were arriving a little too anxiously (aka speeding...just a wee) because we're here at her sister's request to potentially stop a wedding.

(Boy, that's a funny reason too seeing as how her own wedding once upon a time came to a stand still....we shall see how things pan out.  Thus far having been introduced to the future blushing bride, we've a ways to go if she's to change our minds. )

QUICK REMINDER...don't forget about the TWO contests going on now!  One hops away TOMORROW with your chance to win a new cozy mystery and so much more....the other sticks around until the 5th of March but they always say the early bird catches the worm.  Don't worry, it's easy peasy to enter, so come join the fun and SPREAD THE WORD, kay? ^_^ Now, on to today's post...

Third times the charm, or so they say and that's the number of times I've participated in this particular MEME as of today...but I'm telling you, it's SO much fun plus it's another way to share the books you are currently reading...and what reader/blogger amongst us would shy away from a chance like that, hmm?  ^_^  So, if you don't already participate in this fab post, there's no time like the present...and speaking of the present, on with the show!

This week...

I'm with the guys (the guys beings Roland, Chris, and Jacob) at Roland's house on school break attending a party that seems to have taken a bit of a drastic turn.  Well, perhaps drastic is the wrong term....what word would you use to describe a party where your friend's brother's car just followed the crystal swan...into the pool.  *-*  Yep, let's hope the parents don't come home anytime soon...~whistles~

Hi guys!

Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers...the place to be when its rainy outside and you're looking for something to brighten your otherwise gloomy day.  Why?  Because books are MAGICAL like that... ^_^

QUICK REMINDER...TODAY IS YOUR LAST CHANCE to enter to win in the Printed Books Giveaway Hop, so don't delay...get your entries in!  It's easy peasy, promise and open to EVERYONE (the prize is determined by location) so best of luck to you and SPREAD THE WORD, kay?  ^_^  Now, on to today's post...

This is only the SECOND time I've participated in this particular MEME, but I'm telling you, I'm really enjoying it.  It's another way to share the books you are currently reading aside from an actual teaser from the story PLUS it gives you a chance to be tantalized into possibly adding another title to your future read list...which I'm ALWAYS totally on board with.  (hehe)  So, on with the show!

This week...

I'm with Mr. Buffarino (who insists on being called Pippa...don't know why yet) and a few prima ballerina hopefuls including our lead Margit and her best friend Karola.  We've just arrived in Novara, Italy and we're supposed heading to Milan to be given starring roles at La Scala...but right now the "seedy" part of town we're in is looking like anything BUT that.  *-*

So, this is my first time participating in this particular MEME but if I have anything to say about it, it won't be my last.  It was started by Melissa over at My World in Words and Pages (http://melissa-melsworld.blogspot.com) ...fab site if I do say so...and it let's you share a bit about your reading adventure in a new way; by answering the infamous "W" questions. Ready for a little bookish fun readers? Here we go!

I'm with Nobody... aka Nix...and Claire in a cabin in the woods, in the middle of nowhere learning about his bloody past, how to fade, and that The Society may be a lot more dark than light in the grander scheme of things.

I'm over halfway through NOBODY by Jennifer Lynn Barnes and though I almost lost my grip a time or two, I'm loving it! Racing towards the finish line but to what end, who knows! Can't wait. So who, where, what are you? Do tell!

Until next time ...happy reading!
