Last Saturday (May 2nd) is Free Comic Book Day! In celebration of comics and graphic novels, some suggestions: - Do you read graphic novels/comics? Why do/don’t you enjoy them? No, I don't read Graphic novels would be a wrong thing to say. In fact I've never tried reading a Graphic novel. My library doesn't stock... Continue Reading →
Booking through thursday: Worse?
Which is worse? Finding a book you love and then hating everything else you try by that author, or Reading a completely disappointing book by an author that you love? This is such a difficult question. Finding a book you love and then hating everything else you try by that author? I will have to... Continue Reading →
BTT: Numbers game…
For something different, I’m borrowing a question from … here! One of the very first questions ever at Booking Through Thursday. Back from 2005 when Laura owned the blog but, because it was so new, it didn’t get as many responses as it does now … so, why not revisit? Here’s the question: Some people... Continue Reading →

BTT: The best book you have never read…
We’ve all seen the lists, we’ve all thought, “I should really read that someday,” but for all of us, there are still books on “The List” that we haven’t actually gotten around to reading. Even though we know they’re fabulous. Even though we know that we’ll like them. Or that we’ll learn from them. Or... Continue Reading →

Since “Inspiration” is (or should) the theme this week … what is your reading inspired by? This is a really nice question. But I am not really sure how to answer it. The one line answer would be 'I love reading' so I don't really need an inspiration. But that’s not entirely true right? Let’s... Continue Reading →
BTT: The best?
It’s a week or two later than you’d expect, and it may be almost a trite question, but … what were your favorite books from 2008? (It’s an oldie but a goodie question for a reason, after all … because, who can’t use good book suggestions from time to time?) Favorite books huh? I have... Continue Reading →
BTT: Time is of the Essence and stuff…
I am a day late for BTT as I was not feeling well for the past 3 days. I took a leave of absence from work too. Today I am feeling much better and rejuvenated actually. And it's even better that it's Friday. My bikes tyre was punctured on my way to the office today... Continue Reading →
BTT: 5 for Favorites
1. Do you have a favorite author? 2. Have you read everything he or she has written? 3. Did you LIKE everything? My favorite author is Sidney Sheldon. And yes, I have read every book written by him. But that does not mean I have liked all of them. I love Nora Roberts and Mary... Continue Reading →
Booking through thursday: Honesty
I receive a lot of review books, but I have never once told lies about the book just because I got a free copy of it. However, some authors seem to feel that if they send you a copy of their book for free, you should give it a positive review. Do you think reviewers... Continue Reading →
