Book Board Chat

Hi everyone. Well I have about a dozen things listed and not one has any action on it. I'm not used to that at all. I think I may be invisible to people until the last day or so of the auction or bin sale...I don't jump through their hoops and I think there's some criteria you have to meet to appear "high up" in the searches. We shall see. I've been re-reading a few of the J.A. Jance books....picked up one of the Beaumont books I had never read (odd, because I try to read everything by an author I like)...then realized it had been long enough I could follow to the next one and see how he and his lady resolved their situation. Plus - always a happy day - there's a new Linda Fairstein out! (Devil's Bridge) I have it and will start it on the weekend, probably. I picked up a few at a thrift today - a couple I probably have read but years ago; that's what I've been doing lately to make up for the lack of new authors I like....re-reading some favorites. It's working out well. I'll save the new stuff for "dessert". Is everyone else disgusted by the Kim Davis thing? So tired of the wrangling and game playing going on. And then they pulled a Sarah Palin thing, using a "theme song" without getting permission from the band that wrote it. Palin's faux pas was using "Barracuda" after which Heart told her to cease and desist, and this one was "Eye of the Tiger" by Foreigner. Rumor has it the record company OR the band itself may file a law suit, just to keep things even MORE stirred up . I yearn for the good old days. Many of us know how things were, and basically people were a lot more respectful... there were problems, of course, but nothing like today. And of course hamburger was about 37 cents a pound back in the 50's! lol
