Post-Thanksgiving Post

:) Did you like my pun there? I love bad jokes.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I know I did, I love cooking with my mom, I love eating, I love taking family pictures, I especially LOVE cranberry sauce and PIE, and I even kinds love washing dishes (don't laugh!) so Thanksgiving is pretty much an ideal holiday for me. This year it was also my grandma's birthday so I got to talk to her on the phone for an hour. Well...maybe talk isn't the word I should use, listen is better since my grandma likes to ramble on and on. Remind you of anyone you know? :)

Leave a comment to tell me about any fun traditions you have on Thanksgiving? My sister reenacted the funny commercial where the grandpa eats a scoop out of the pumpkin pie and then fills it in with cool whip!

Hope everyone also survived the insanity of Black Friday! I ventured out late that evening when it had died down, but I didn't buy much, just an awesome cd and my sister bought a wonderful documentary:

awesome cd and inspirational documentary check 'em out!

Okay, back to book related stuff! Meg Cabot posted this link in her blog, it's really helpful when you're looking for a new author to read, just type in an author you like and it gives you a cluster of other authors that are similar. The closer the author is to your author's name, the more similar. Personally, I just like watching the names dance around! :D http://www.literature-map.com/

I've missed you guys and can't wait to see you!

I absolutely love Matt Nathanson! "Still" is now one of my favorite songs ever!

Uh,Sti? Isn't it your grandmothers b-day EVERY year? And is the person we're supposed to be reminded of rambling on and on you? Hmm, I dunno. You don't ramble... most of the time. I like pie too! I didn't go shopping on Black Friday... I went on Black Thursday! Tee hee, that was a bad joke. I meant I went the day before Thanksgiving. I do like your pun. Taa! Julie!

Julie, you're right my grandma's birthday is every year, but it doesn't always fall on Thanksgiving! :) Glad to hear I don't ramble on too much...

A few months ago I decided (with the help of several teens) that I wanted to make my own booktube channel of youtube and now it's a reality! If you don't hang out in the bookish community on youtube I'll explain, booktube is basically what it sounds like. Youtube channels dedicated to people reviewing and talking about books. Lots of them focus on new YA books but really people read across all genres. That's what I want to do. I'm a Youth Services librarian, so I read and love a lot of YA books, but I also read didn't genres/age groups etc. and I'm going to talk about all of them on my channel. BUT I won't just be talking about books by myself, some episodes will feature guests stars! First though, I recapped my favorite books from 2014 in two episodes (I talk so much we had to cut it in half). Watch them! Do all those nice things you can do to a youtube video: Like, Comment, Share, Subscribe! Stay posted for more! DFTBA, Sti
