What's on Your Desk Wednesday?

Sassy tagged me for this fun meme...

What's on your desk Wednesday? is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Sassy Brit of Alternative-Read.com . Check her blog out each Wednesday for the post titled What's on your desk Wednesday?

You can do one of two things or both!


1. Grab a camera and take a photo of your desk! Or anywhere you stack your books/TBR pile. And no tidying! Add this photo to your blog.Tag at least 5 people! Come back here and leave a link back to your photo in comments.
2. List at least 5 BOOKISH things on your desk (I'm thinking your TBR pile or books you haven't shelved...) List at least 5 NON BOOK things. (I'm thinking some of some of the more unusual items on your desk/table?) Tag at least 5 people to do the same. Come back here and leave your link, so we can come and visit your blog. Or add your answers in the comments if you don't have a blog.


I don't have my digital camera available, but here's my list...

5 Bookish things...

1. My little notebook of the order some of the book series go in. I read many books that are part of a series and this helps me keep track of which I've read and what I'm up to next.
2. Bookmarks
3. A couple of author newsletters I received in snail mail.
4. The Italian Lover by Robert Hellenga - getting it ready for my book giveaway which ends this week :)
5. The current book I'm reading "The Late Lamented Molly Marx" by Sally Kowslow.

5 Non-Book things...

1. My Weight Watchers point books.
