Sharing Beyond Books #5 July 16, 2011

It's Saturday night again! Whew - feels like I spent half the day checking entries and determining winners for Blogoversary and some of the other book giveaways.
Once again, thanks for your comments last week.
Only a couple of you are able to listen to music while reading.  Linda K mentioned TV in the background... I have TV background while blogging but not for reading or editing.

I enjoyed reading about your national/state birds and flowers.  The question even made some of you look up the info. :-)

We did have a mixed group of books for our stays on the deserted island! The Bible got the most picks... A couple people picked all romances; some picked classics; a couple picked long books they haven't gotten to read yet.  Jennifer included Dr. Seuss and Mariska picked five Harry Potter books!  That would give many hours of reading! :o)

The Winner from last week's comments is: #6 Ricki.  There are still 9 'love' books to pick from, 7 Christmas choices and 6 Summer titles below. So Ricki - please choose a book from the remaining Love Books List for Giveaway or remaining Christmas Giveaway Books or the summer books and let me know your choice, your address and a choice of bookmarks by completing the WINNER FORM.

WEEK #5 Questions
 
Q1. Are you a blogger? If so, are you primarily a book blog, reviewer or general blog? Please leave your blog url so others can zip by to say "hi!"
I am a book blogger! Does that surprise anyone?  Obviously I do reviews, interviews and giveaways.

Q2. Do you have pets?  (I couldn't remember if this was asked on Enquiring minds, but I don't think so.)
We have two dogs and our son's kitty. Princess is a rat terrier, Bear is a long hair mini dachshund and Tiger Lily is a very sweet tiger cat.



Q3. Now here is the next question from the suggestion list. Faith Hope Cherrytea asks: what's your favourite place to read?

Hmmm- I can't say I have a favorite because I will read ANYWHERE! I suppose the most often spot is bed or *blush* bathroom.

I am getting some question suggestions now. Thanks! DON'T FORGET any of you might have good questions you'd like to ask.
