The hostess with the mostest....

My peeps! How's it going? lol

Ok, now that you can tell I'm on a sugar rush I'll open this up with a bit more appropriateness for a book club blog...lol

Tattered Pages was birthed in the heart of my friend Lisy. She was inspired to join a book club and then being the good friend that she is, let me in on the ground floor of her fabulous idea. Tho to be honest I wish it would have been a money making idea instead, but hey beggars cant be choosey right? :)

In any case, I am a book worm. I love books so much. I remember as a child aspiring to fill up my book case. Which for the record was the top portion of a china closet my grandmother was getting rid of. lol I remember once wanting to have 500 books cause I thought it would be cool!! Yeah I know...but hey reading is fundamental.

I remember visiting the library when I was younger. It was just mostly a place to hangout after school and do a little homework. But mostly I just hung out. I remember the first book I read was by Judy Blume...I think it was called Forever. And the part that has clung unto me for years is the part where Michael stops the girl from putting cologne on his privates because it stings! lol All these years later and that's still my favorite part of the book. lolol Yeah I'm weird that way. I remember silly parts to books that I don't even remember the Titles to. lol

Anyway, to make a long story short, I moved and my husband has threatened to throw out anything new that I bring into the house that is already in existence. As I have a small book shelf already I decided to visit my old friend...the Library! FYI - while my book shelf is small it's literally filled with my favorite authors. My favorite all time author is Janet Evanovich (http://www.evanovich.com/) and Lawrence Sanders. I could go on and on about them but I won't...so you needn't worry that this post will be long and boring.....it will only be long. :)

Anyway, being the tried and true friend that she is, the Library welcomed me back. I now visit her on a weekly basis. Every Tuesday for those that are interested in meeting up with me. Since she's held no grudge against me for abandoning her all these years, I in turn have decided to grace her wide open halls and lovingly caress her shelves and table tops. Eventually relieving her of 7-8 books as I strut out her doors to my car.

I picked up eight...yes EIGHT books cause Lisy has banned me from reading No Time for Goodbye until she is ready. Which is really putting a cramp in my style cause I wanted to read it right away. So since she is the book club master, I have bowed to her wishes and I am reading No Humans Involved by Kelley Armstrong. Pretty good so far. But to show you how out of control I am about reading I had to keep the book club book in my car in the garage! Cause if it's in the house I know that I'll have a moment of weakness and will cave into its loving coos and woos. lol

Well I do wish more would join our book club, but if for the moment it's just Lisy and me, that's fine. We have enough hot air in us to keep the fires going all night and the next. lolol Please don't be shy. Jump in, post a comment, join the book club, meet me at the library. Whatever. We're here for the good reads, good friends and most importantly the good vibes we get from sharing.

Enjoy your day. Remember the library is no respecter of persons, it will never condemn you for abandoning her, but it will lovingly welcome you back into her magically filled halls and windows to other worlds.

Until we meet again my darlings.....
