Happy Happy Friday! I am participating in two different blog "hops" this week - so welcome :)

Next there is the Book Blogger Hop hosted by crazy-for-books.com, another great book blog to check out...her question this week is:


Are you going to Book Expo America and/or Book Blogger Convention this year?


My Answer: My husband might have a fit if I told him I was leaving him with our two sons (one three, the other one) for an extended period of time (more than a few hours that is!) I won't be going, but I really, really, want to!

Friday's are also Follow Friday over at parajunkee.com and while I am not that into paranormal young adult lit, her blog is awesome :)


This week's question is:
The blogger apocalypse made me a little emotional. What is the most emotional scene in a book that you have read lately?

My Answer: In Move Over Manifest, there is a scene at the end of the book where she is reuniting with her father who has kind of shipped her off to a small town for the summer. He doesn't get off the train, but she knows why...I can't say anymore without giving the ending away!

    My kids are 4 and 2 so I don't know what my husband would think either if I took off for the week!

    ARG! I just realized Blogger had reset my settings from Wed, before my blog was public! If you couldn’t view my blog, please try again! I’ve reset everything. Sorry, thanks! ~ Jen @ A Book and a Latte

    Hopping through. I really want to read Move Over Manifest. Hasn't gotten much publicity post Newberry - at least on blogs that I read.

    BEA does sound so tempting, doesn't it? But I can't go this year either. It is a nice dream for the future. You've intrigued me with that teaser about Move Over Manifest. I'll have to look into it.

    New follower! Haven't read Move Over Manifest, but you've definitely made me want to read it! I know what you mean about BEA, it's tough to do anything away from home when you have kids. I have a 3 year old, so I definitely don't get out much either; can't imagine having another one! You can see my Follow Friday post *HERE*
