Fabulous Follow Friday


It's Friday again, and that means that the weekend is upon is, which is awesome because I badly need to rest after such a hectic week.  Patients, patients, and more patients tested my patience.  Fortunately for me - and lucky for them - my patience thread is quite long and I was able to pull off this week's work without too much fuss.  Is your week as busy as mine?

This week's featured blog:  

Confessions of a Page Turner”=


This week's question: 
 
Inspired by the inane Twitter trend of #100factsaboutme, give us five BOOK RELATED silly facts about you.
  1. Every day that I wake up, I tell myself, "This is the day that I will stop visiting bookstores and start a month-long book buying ban."  I've been telling myself that since November of last year - nothing has happened so far.
  2. I practically shove books at my younger brother and The Boyfriend.  They thank me after they've read whatever it was that I was peddling them.
  3. My mother loves my books - even the YA ones.
  4. No one from my workplace knows that I love to read and even have a book blog.
  5. Contrary to typical conclusions, I did not get myopia from reading books in dim light.  I used to sneak out my mother's old prescription glasses to school and wear it during classes, not minding that my vision was shaky and twisted.  That's still book related, right?
Have a great Friday!

  1. I had a very lousy week. :-( I wasn't in the mood to read that much... I don't know why.

  2. I need to go on a book buying ban too. I swear I will too, one of these days. Maybe if it's only a day ban, I will make it. :) I'm a new follower from the hop. Happy Friday!

  3. You should probably just give up on the book buying ban -- what a silly thing! ;)

I just have to tell you, ARGH feeds on awesomeness, so if you can, drop him some awesome here, and I promise to give some awesome back :D

Right now, because of my really busy schedule, I'm cutting back on receiving awards. So until further notice, me and ARGH would not be accepting awards. But thank you for thinking of us, we really appreciate it!
