Birthday Celebration at Read-thru

125 years ago today, the Eiffel Tower was officially completed in Paris after 2 years, 2 months, and 5 days of construction.

No wonder I have such an affinity for the Eiffel Tower. We share the same birthday!

I was planning on attending this Bookmarks event tonight. I've recently read The Selection and The Elite by Kiera Cass, and I was looking forward to hearing from her specifically.

Unfortunately she came down with a stomach bug and wasn't able to make it. Since I really didn't know anything about Megan Shepherd, I decided not to go at all. Another friend of mine said Megan's books were good, so I will put both of them on my To Read list.

  Hey Cheryl! I know you don't know me, but we have a lot of mutual friends in the Winston theatre scene. I'm stage managing for Dixie Swim Club at Stained Glass playhouse and your name came up while we were talking about possible actresses for the show. Would you be interested in auditioning for us tomorrow night at Stained Glass at 7pm or so? We would love to have you. Thanks in advance for considering it

  OK, so it's me asking again. Are you by any chance around town on April 12 (a Sat. evening) and, if so, would you be willing to take a look at a short play script and maybe be part of a reading of it? It's not mine, but a friend wrote it and is suddenly faced with producing it, basically, because it got selected as the top entry (W-Salem Writers). And she begged me for help, which I cannot resist.

  I am around town on the 12th, and, of course, I'd be willing to help out in any way you need.

  You are awesome as always!! Still using the aol.com email? Let me send you the script. After you've read it maybe you'll have some thoughts on the male characters.

A Book Report, "Above"

I finished this book almost 2 weeks ago and I still can't get it out of my head. I mean I've read several other books since finishing Above. But during quiet times I continue to reflect on it. I guess that's a symptom of a really good book.

I don't want to go into more detail about the book. To do so might spoil it or taint your thoughts. Suffice it to say that you really should read it. I think it would help me to find someone who I could talk to about the book. Another symptom of a really good book!

Oh, yea, I was given a copy of this book from the publishers via NetGalley, in return for an honest review.

So these went out today...

A Book Report, "The Chase"

I was lucky enough to win an advanced copy of "The Heist," Evanovich's and Goldberg's first Kate O'Hare and Nick Fox novel. I absolutely loved it.

So when Netgalley sent me an email announcing "The Chase," I quickly requested it and squeed in delight when the request was accepted. After downloading it to my Kindle, I immediately began reading it.

It's the cast of characters that really sell this book for me. I love the repartee between Kate and Nick. They both take it as much as they give it. Many times their banter led to out loud laughter.

Boyd is another of my favorite characters. He's an absolutely hysterical method actor. His discussion of his motivation with the director of a pancake commercial is priceless.

This is a very quick and a highly entertaining read.
