Sharing Beyond Books #129 Comment Giveaway 12/7/13

Hello again on Saturday night and Welcome to SBB, Sharing Beyond Books.
Thanks to everyone who commented last week.

I hope everyone has enjoyed the first week of December. The weather has warmed up which is too bad. I see more lights up each day/night.

Most of us are fine buying used books although several mentioned that they buy new for gifts!  Nikki doesn't have a used bookstore handy so she buys more new. And Ricki still likes the smell of new even though she buys used too.

I am glad that I am not alone in forgetting my anniversary!! A good half of us tend to forget anniversaries even if we remember birthdays. The other half are good at remembering but most of them use reminders like FB, calendars or planners. Okay - guess I should take that idea and implement it.

WEEK #129

Q1. Winnie asked this earlier in the year but I didn't use it till now: What is your favorite book this year??

A: I was reluctant to ask and answer this one earlier as I didn't really have a favorite yet for the year. Now I will select Shrouded as my favorite so far in 2013.

Q2. My non-bookish 'Question' this week: Do you prefer bar soap or liquid soap/gel for bath/shower time??

A: I am a soap user and for the most part have used the same mild, old fashioned brand for years. I do have a few fancy soaps for decoration but provide soap pumps for use in the guest baths - of course that is usually for hands. Recently the doctors told me to use a good antibacterial soap to prepare for the surgery but friends say their research shows that is not good to use all the time as it washes away good skin oils.

Thanks to those who are sending in Questions. DON'T BE SHY! Surely everyone has a Q or two you'd like to ask. Input suggestions in this Suggested Question Form. At the end of each month I draw from the suggestions I used during the month and that person will get a book choice or GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions. Thanks for sending in questions! We are getting low on questions so hopefully you will send more in -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify to use.
