This is for those of you whom we love but because of our personality "quirks" we seldom stay in touch with, and even for those of you whom might rather we didn't stay in quite so frequent touch. -S&M

This does not take into account the two Jane Austen novels, the two Mark Haddon novels, Middlemarch, Anna Karenina, and Wuthering Heights that are still on my bookshelf.
I have a stack of books over two feet tall that are waiting patiently for me to read. They've been sitting there staring at me for weeks. Months even. And they'll have to keep waiting. Death By Denim by Linda Gerber came out on Tuesday and my copy arrived from Amazon today! You may remember my post from a month ago about her first two books in the series. If you haven't read them, stop reading this now (I mean now!) and go get them. They are fabulous.
The author is having a virtual release party in addition to the one I can't go to in OH. So in an effort to get more people to read these books and go to her blog, I'm Tweeting and posting to Facebook. Please check them out. You will not be disappointed.
Now my weekend will be taken up by Aphra and Seth. No better way to spend it. Cannot wait!
Three: the number of times this week I've said "Honey, don't encourage the children" in reference to Mark meowing at the kittens in the morning when they want to be brushed.
