Newest picture taken yesterday of the baby birds that live on top of the light by my back door. :)
Bibliognome Hulkified :)
Armchair BEA: Please tell us a little bit about yourself: Who are you? How long have you been blogging? Why did you get into blogging?
Bibliognome: My
name's Becky B. I'm a Library Assistant at a community college and
it's always an adventure with students of every age from high school to
the older life long learners. I've been blogging since August 16, 2010.
I got into blogging because I love books and after
discovering/applying to review at other book blogs I thought why not
just start my own blog, so that's just what I did.
Armchair BEA: Have
you previously participated in Armchair BEA? What brought you back for
another year? If you have not previously participated, what drew you to
the event?
Bibliognome: I
have indeed participated in Armchair BEA before. I'm back again this
year because it's a lot of fun and lets me discover new blogs/ideas.
Armchair BEA: What are you currently reading, or what is your favorite book you have read so far in 2013?
Bibliognome: I have two favorite books I’ve read so far in 2013. Invisibility by Andrea Cremer and David Levithan and Eleanor & Park
by Rainbow Rowell. These books are very different but oh so quotable,
you’ll definitely be thinking about these books long past the last page.
Armchair BEA: Which is your favorite post that you have written that you want everyone to read?
Bibliognome: I’m
very proud of Story Time because it’s a story that is kept going by
comments and it’s getting really interesting. Here’s the most current
link, http://bibliognome1.blogspot.com/2013/04/story-time_27.html
Armchair BEA: What literary location would you most like to visit? Why?
Bibliognome: I would love to visit the world of Harry Potter (if it was real of course) though I would settle for Harry Potter World the theme park too :). This world of magic would just be so cool because it's such an immersive world.
Just found your blog on the Armchair Bea linky list and I am glad I did. I love the birds. Though it must give a right mess it is cute to have baby birds growing up so close by. I have heard a lot of good stories about Eleanor & Park. Guess I have to read that one.
ReplyDeleteHave a great BEA from home!!
Thanks for stopping by. :) Yeah, the birds are a lot of fun to watch. Yes, you should definitely check out ELEANOR & PARK (I adore that book.) Here's hoping you have a great Armchair BEA too.
DeleteThose baby birds!! I have Eleanor and Park sitting on my shelf, I finished Attachments a couple of weeks ago and I can't wait to read E&P - Rainbow Rowsell is amazing.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the rest of your posts!
my intro post
Yeah they are adorable. Can't recommend Eleanor & Park enough (it's so good.) Thanks :)
DeleteI haven't read E&P yet. I will have to give it a go.
ReplyDeleteMy Intro @ Lindsey Gray
Awesome let me know what you think about it. :)
DeleteBeing a library assistant sounds like a good job. I like that you call it an "adventure"! Enjoy BEA :0)
ReplyDeleteIt really is and because this is a small library we all get to help people and nobody is stuck with just one job/task all day. Yeah it really is an adventure because you never do know what people will ask.
DeleteThanks. :)
Definitely agree about the world of Harry Potter!
ReplyDeleteI also LOVED Eleanor & Park. I'm not always one for love stories but that one was just so well done.
Thanks :) Great to hear, I'm usually not one for contemporary/love stories either but I adored darn near everything about ELEANOR & PARK.
DeleteEleanor and Park was SO good! One of my favorites! Glad you're participating in Armchair BEA again this year! I'm looking forward to meeting new blogging folks!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, I adore that book and that the author's from Omaha too so I got to go to her signing for the book.
DeleteThanks for stopping by. :)
Happy Armchair BEAing! Love your baby bird pic. I have a few in my life this year making lots of noise in my house eaves. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, it's like they were just posing to have their picture taken the other day. Yeah it's one smart bird that is definitely staying out of the rain.
DeleteHappy Armchair BEA to you too, have a great week.
I have a robin living on top of my houses front lamb. Its amazing the places mommy birds place their nests at.
ReplyDeleteI want to visit Hogwarts too! I hope you enjoy Armchair BEA!
Nice, yeah we were surprised to find a nest there.
DeleteYes, Hogwarts would be so cool to visit. Have a great Armchair BEA. :)
I want to read Invisibility so bad. It sounds like that movie Just Like Heaven with Reese Witherspoon. And I keep hearing E&P is awesome so i should read that one soon. Nice mask btw! haha
ReplyDeleteYou should check out INVISIBILITY, it's so good. E & P is indeed awesome.
DeleteThanks, that mask is what happens when my sister and I are at Target and have too much time on our hands. :)
Eleanor & Park was simply wonderful wasn't it? It's not my normal genre but I fell in love with it and I'm so glad that I read it :)
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to take my kids to The Wizarding World of HP next winter. Crossing my fingers!
Have a great ABEA!
It was wonderful/not my usual genre either but I quickly became engrossed in the book.
DeleteNice, hope you have fun if you get to go.
You have a great ABEA too. :)
Welcome back to Armchair BEA. I've heard such great things about Eleanor & Park. Glad to hear you agree. It's already on my TBR list, but I guess I need to move it closer to the top. Almost everyone I've seen who answered the question about literary location also chose Harry Potter/Hogwarts. It definitely seems like a given on the choice. A great world. Good luck with the rest of Armchair BEA.
ReplyDeleteSandy @ Somewhere Only We Know
Thanks, ELEANOR & PARK is a really surprising book. Yes, I'm pretty sure that Hogwarts/the Harry Potter world would be the perfect place for bookish people.
DeleteHave a great Armchair BEA. :)
I feel like EVERYONE is talking about Eleanor & Park! It had kind of caught my eye anyway, since my daughter is named Eleanor, but I'm thinking I need to give in to the peer pressure since you all seem to praise it so highly. :)
ReplyDeleteNice, hopefully you love it too. It's highly quotable and quite the story. :)
DeleteEleanor and Park is one of the books that I currently have out from the library, and I'm eager to read it. I've got Invisibility on my TBR list, too; I loved David Levithan's Every Day and can't wait to check out more of his writing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
Cool, hope you like the books they're both unique and have great stories. Yeah I loved Andrea Cremer's NIGHTSHADE series and David Levithan's writing from DASH AND LILY'S BOOK OF DARES (another great book.) when you get both their writing styles together it's very interesting. I should read EVERY DAY as soon as possible too. :)
DeleteI live not so far from Orlando and still haven't been to the HP theme park. My daughter is so upset with me.
ReplyDeleteI would totally love to visit Hogwarts, though.
Yeah, I would definitely check it out if I was closer too. I can just imagine how cool it would be.
