A Winner and a Hopper
1:30 PM
First off, I want to announce the winner of One Breath Away by Heather Gudenkauf. It's Linda Brower. Congratulations, Linda! If you would please send your snail mail address to me at blogginboutbooksATgmailDOTcom, I'll pass it on to the publicist, who will send the book to you.
Thanks to all who entered the giveaway. If you didn't win this time, don't despair. You can still enter to win a copy of Dan Wells' new psychological/supernatural thriller, The Hollow City by clicking here. And, of course, you must stay tuned because I will definitely be hosting more book giveaways in the near future.

This week's question is: Who is your go-to author when you are in a reading rut?
- Honestly, when people talk about reading ruts, I have no idea what they're going on about. A reading rut? Isn't that like an oxymoron or something? I never get tired of reading. Never. Are there times when I get a little cranky after reading a bunch of mediocre books in a row? Sure. When that happens, I do turn to some old favorites. These folks can always reignite my reading passion when it starts to burn a little dim: Kathy Reichs, Jodi Picoult, Neal Shusterman, Maeve Binchy (Just read on her website that Maeve Binchy died less than two weeks ago. How did I miss this news? Sad day for her fans, of which I am definitely one.), L.A. Meyer, Joanne Harris, Patrick Ness, Brandon Sanderson, Robyn Carr, and the list goes on and on and on ...
How about you? Who are your go-to authors?
If you're visiting BBB for the first time, welcome! I'm so glad you're here. Take a look around, leave me a comment or two (or three or four), and, most of all, enjoy the browse. I promise to return the favor. And, to my trusty old followers, a heartfelt thanks for your support. Happy reading, everyone!
