Sunday Salon…11.08.09

The Book Faery — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 18:55:27 +0000

This is my first weekend I’ve not had to do school work in the past month. Can you believe that for once I didn’t procrastinate til week end (which would be today, Sunday at midnight)? I actually got all of my business reading and writing assignments completed Thursday. Yeah, I’m pretty impressed with myself and to celebrate I had to visit the used bookstore (love the smell of old books, am I odd or just a book addict! lol). This is my last week of the e-commerce class...

Friday…11.06.09

It’s Friday night and what am I doing right now? The house is asleep, the heat has been turned on (I try to keep it off the day), and I’m in a tizzy (did I actually say tizzy?! LOL) because I’ve misplaced the book Sins of the Flesh that I’ve been reading the past couple of days. To make matters worse for me, I’m in the climax part of it and I need that relief of finality to find out how it’s all going to play out! FRUSTRATING! You know how that...

The Evolution Conspiracy, Lisa A. Shiel – Author Guest Post

The Book Faery — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 13:31:12 +0000

A deceptively simple word that has transformed the way we look at ourselves and everything around us. Once considered unique, man has been reduced to little more than another animal, thanks to evolutionary theories. Textbooks present evolution as fact—indisputable, inevitable, and incomprehensible unless you hold a PhD in a relevant field. Don’t believe it. Anyone can understand evolution. And this book provides the tools! Evolutionists push the idea that only religious zealots dispute...

DUST, Susan Berliner – Author Guest Post

The Book Faery — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:23:10 +0000

While unloading groceries in her Rock Haven condo, Karen McKay notices a strange swirl of red, green, and blue dust. The swirl follows her inside, lifts a porcelain ballerina from her wall unit, twirls it in the air, and throws it to the floor, shattering it into pieces. The following evening, Karen hears her neighbor’s dog barking loudly. Upon investigation, she finds her neighbor, Marion, at the bottom of the stairs—dead. At the top of the stairs, a colorful whirlpool of dust circles...

Where the Heart Was, Glenn G. Boyer – Author Guest Post

The Book Faery — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 11:00:36 +0000

“Where the Heart Was” is dedicated to Abraham Lincoln who once called on the ‘mystic chords of memory’ as a way to preserve America; the country he labeled ‘the last best hope of earth.’ In his stunningly original novel, author and historian Glenn G. Boyer does just that, as he traces the history of the American Republic from the Revolution through the Civil War and Great Depression. Poignantly interweaving his family history with major historical events,...

Grab your current read. Let the book fall open to a random page. Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12. Don’t forget to tell us the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from…that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given! The memory of the foul room, of the sad days when up north had been only a grail, cast a shadow over him. During those unpromising years of childhood...

Mr. Darcy, Vampyre, Amanda Grange – Author Guest Post & Giveaway

The Book Faery — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 04:15:37 +0000

FROM THE AUTHOR…Thanks for asking me to the blog, and by the way, I love the spelling of faery! I’ve always liked reading fantasy of all kinds, I love reading about worlds which are different from our own. Sometimes the worlds are in the past and sometimes they’re in a completely different kind of universe altogether. I think that’s why I came up with the idea of Mr. Darcy, Vampyre. I wanted to write a sequel to Pride and Prejudice, but I wanted to make it different from...
