Sunday Salon - Ebooks, ratings, and other things...

Labels: , ,

It's been a fairly good week for me...I finished one audio book "Worst Case" by one of my favorite authors, James Patterson. I loved it and already posted my review. I, also, finished Executive Lunch by Maria E. Schneider, an author I just "discovered". I have a couple more of her books to read and review as well. I enjoy her writing.

Executive Lunch was the first ebook I read on my brand new Nook. I never thought I'd like reading ebooks. I always thought nothing could replace the feel of a real book in my hands. I was sure this was one technology that I would never accept. Well, I was wrong :) I can't put it down. I love my Nook and have already added way too many books to it - that's just like me, starting a brand new ebook TBR. The best thing is I don't have to leave home to buy books and I can read them immediately. Plus, when I travel, I get to take my entire TBR with me. It's cool...weird, but cool :)

Now on to my new ratings system. I've been procrastinating about using a rating system for when I review books, but I've decided to go ahead and implement one. Here it is (and, yes, I'm using cat heads!!!)




Awesome! Amazing! A classic! A real keeper!

Very good - would definitely recommend.

Good - worth a look

Eh....not the worst book in the world.

Don't even bother with it.


Well, that's my week in a nutshell. I hope you all had a great week!

    I'd say my week was 5 Cat Heads. And I read one 5 Cat Heads book.

    Love the new rating system.

    I seem to have completely forgotten my challenges this month. I must get back to them.

    I'm hosting a giveaway on my Sunday Salon post today. I plan to give away two $10 gift cards to Amazon on Easter Sunday. I hope you will stop by and sign up!

    My husband has a Kindle that we share and I'm looking forward to traveling with it on our vacation this year. Glad you're enjoying your Nook!
