Anna Tagged Me! :)

Book Buzz Tag

Here are the instructions:
I am going to list three categories of books: 3 MUST Read Books, 3 Keep Your Eyes on These, and 3 Look for These Soon. Keeping with the theme, I am going to tag at least 3 bloggers. They should put these same lists on their blogs but SUBTRACT one book from each list and ADD one of their own. Then they should tag at least 3 more bloggers. It will be fun to see how the lists change as they go around the blogosphere. Please come back to this post and leave a comment so I can see how the lists are changing. Since this is Book Buzz...please keep your lists to titles released in 2007-2009.

3 MUST Read Books:
Somebody Else's Daughter by Elizabeth Brundage
Without a Backward Glance by Kate Veitch
Mademoiselle Boleyn By Robin Maxwell (I enjoyed this book compared to a vast number that I've read recently. Some really stink, this one was actually very good.)

3 Keep Your Eyes on These:
The Memory of Water by Karen White
Seeing Me Naked by Liza Palmer
Free Range Knitter by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee (Supposedly an essay book like her first book which I've actually re-read numerous times. All knitters can relate to some of her experiences).

3 Look for These Soon:
Feather Man by Rhyll McMaster
The Good Thief by Hannah Tinti
The Devil's Brood by Sharon Kay Penman (My favorite Author really, I own all of her books. She creates a world that's hard to draw yourself out of if you love historical fiction).

For this I tag:
Dawn (Knittinwolf)
Julie
Jeanne (Natredknits)

(Please, don't feel obligated to play along!)

6 Quirky Things About Me TAG

Here are the rules:
1. Link the person(s) who tagged you
2. Mention the rules on your blog
3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours
4. Tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them.
Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger's blogs letting them know they've been tagged.

Okay, Anna's the one who tagged me.
Here are my 6 quirky things:

1. I love forensic TV shows but would pass out to see that stuff in real life.
2. I like a clean house more than my family does. Weird huh?
3. I hate to use the last of ANYthing. I'll save something just so it won't be gone forever.
4. I like "even" years. I always feel that they'll be good years for me. (I was born on an even day, month and year).
5. I like to sleep in very cool room with my electric blanket and heating pad on. (It's a pain thing). And I need NOISE. Have to have my fan going to sleep.
6. I hate sharing the TV remote. I AM the Queen of my own TV. Bossy Bossy bossy.

Again, don't feel obligated to play along (especially if I tagged you twice or you've already played), but here goes:

For this one I tag:
Dawn (Knittinwolf),
Jeanne (Natredknits),
Julie,
Rikki (SheWolf's Corner),
Ariel (Ariel's Knitting)
Aim (Bumpy Doink)

Have a great day!!

Oh, you're one of those "white noise" sleepers, huh?! That's so funny, how some people need that, and some (like me) want total silence!

Dawn said...

I know, I'm so weird! I bring my own fan when I travel! LOL!!! Otherwise I hear EVERYTHING if it's too quiet!

Thanks for giving me that link Aim! I'll check out your answers! :)

Thanks for playing! I'll have to check out those books you mentioned.

My mom is the same way with the fan. I'm the opposite. I need complete quiet, so you can imagine how hard it was for me to sleep when my daughter was younger!
