Sharing Beyond Books #403 Comment Giveaway September 5, 2020

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

MaryP makes "lists of lists" and Life's Simple Pleasures is "a crazy list lady". At least five commenters make shopping (grocery) lists and three make travel lists. Two use post-its, two make paper lists and Ashfa makes the occasional phone list.

The Winner from SBB #402 comments is #1 Linda who can make a GC choice if international or book choice from the Updated (**Finally!) ARC/Review titles or (recently updated) Love and Christmas titles - all linked near the end of the post. -- [11/16/19 I plan to add some review books this week and maybe some new Christmas and Love titles as soon as I locate the box I put them in. 10/5/19 I have pulled some new books and will be adding them to the list in the next week or so.

**NOTE: I did post an Updated ARC and Other books for Giveaways. I have to go back and list the titles -- someday.
Please let me know your choice by completing the WINNER FORM.

WEEK #403
(One Question.)

Miki asks: How did the covid 19 influence your reading habit? Did you read more or less??
I did experience a sense of disorientation in the second or third month (in May maybe). I continued to work and didn't gain any extra free time so I don't think it has impacted my reading.

I guess we mostly read in solitary anyway.

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 1/2 book choice or $2.50 towards GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions. Thanks for sending in questions! The supply of questions is dwindling so share some if you think of any -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify them.


Your turn to share. Miki asks: How did the covid 19 influence your reading habit? Did you read more or less??

Open internationally and an international winner may get a smaller book or a $5.00 GC if I decide the mailing is too much.

  1. I did read a lot right at the beginning when we were in complete curfew mode. Then I sort of drifted off into you tube and instagram posts and reading has got back to the usual pre covid state.

  5. Congrats, Linda!
    I think I read less than usual. I'm too stressed to simply relax and enjoy a book.
