Book Spotloght Giveaway! Look Again by Lisa Scottoline


I have sooooo many books! I have a ton of print books and probably even more e-books. The Book Spotlight Giveaway feature that I post every Saturday is a way for me to clear my shelves and to share some of the many books I have. There are a lot of different reasons that I might be letting some of my books go, the biggest one is that when we moved a little over 2 years ago I discovered how many books I really do have. This feature is a way for my to cull my collection and to give someone else the opportunity to enjoy them.

****************************

I read (actually I listened to) my very first Lisa Scottoline book last month and I totally loved it. I'm not really sure why it took me so long to get to her books. She'll be another author I'll want to keep track of. I have the CD audiobook to give away this week. 

Good luck and be sure to stop back next week!

Look Again

Look Again by Lisa Scottoline
Audio CD, 10 discs
Published April 14th 2009 by Macmillan Audio

When reporter Ellen Gleeson gets a "Have You Seen This Child?" flyer in the mail, she almost throws it away. But something about it makes her look again, and her heart stops—the child in the photo is identical to her adopted son, Will. Her every instinct tells her to deny the similarity between the boys, because she knows her adoption was lawful. But she's a journalist and won't be able to stop thinking about the photo until she figures out the truth. And she can't shake the question: if Will rightfully belongs to someone else, should she keep him or give him up? She investigates, uncovering clues no one was meant to discover, and when she digs too deep, she risks losing her own life—and that of the son she loves.

Lisa Scottoline breaks new ground in Look Again, a thriller that's both heart-stopping and heart-breaking, and sure to have new fans and book clubs buzzing.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? July 4, 2106

First of all, I would like to wish everyone a
Happy 4th of July!


And now, let's talk books!


It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's an opportunity to visit other blogs and to comment on their reads. And ... you can add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. And here we are!

**************************************

This past week has been rough one. A very dear, dear friend of mine passed away on Wednesday. She has been living with cancer for 9 years and finally her body said 'Enough!'. I have known her for 18 years and we met because of books. When I moved to town and didn't know anyone, I would sit in my car during my son's soccer games and practices. Sometimes the Huskers football games were on the radio too, so there was some multi-tasking going on. Well, anyway, Kris noticed me reading and came over and introduced herself. She figured we could be good friends since we both loved to read and that was the beginning of a wonderful friendship. We actually started a book club together with some other friends and The Book Bags have been meeting every month for over 10 years now. Through her, I met a lot of other wonderful women whom I now call my friends. She is going to leave a big hole is a lot of people's hearts. Please keep Kris in your thoughts this week as we celebrate her life and say our final farewells.

Not a very exciting week, this past week. The weekend was busy with grandkids, which is always wonderful. At work, a woman retired last week after working in our library for 35 years. That is just amazing to me, 35 years at the same job. She is a reader so I am sure she is looking forward to more reading time. I know I would be! Not sure what our plans are for the upcoming 4th of July/3 day weekend but I am sure it will be busy. Happy reading everyone!

Another crazy, busy week this week so I didn't get much reading time in. Spent some time with a dear friend who has cancer. I hate cancer! It's been a long nine years for her, full of both good times and bad times. I am happy that I can be around to give her some support.  Other than that, we celebrated Father's Day and our oldest daughter's birthday yesterday and we will celebrate our youngest grandson's second birthday today. Where does the time go? Like I said, crazy, busy times but I love it!! Have a great week and happy reading!

Not too much exciting going on this week. Hot temps, softball games, grilling out, gathering with neighbors on the patio, dinner with girlfriends to celebrate birthdays, visiting with some of the kids and grandkids, reading, oh yeah, and then working. Well, I guess my week was filled up and it was a wonderful week. I hope you have a great one!
