Love the links as always, hm glue you say
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Larsson link to the Guardian I had missed that.
ReplyDeleteI hope if the material on the laptop is ever published they don't employ another writer to expand it but just publish the raw stuff. That will be more interesting.
I love Zooborns too. Did you see the great pics of the puggles? (Baby echidnas)
ReplyDeleteAs always, a lot of great links to check out. I have already checked out the one about Klausner's 2 star reviews. LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, Cathy!
ReplyDeleteLezlie
I always find several things to tickle my fancy on your Link Sunday posts. I especially liked the post about book challenges on Lezlie's blog. Thanks Cathy.
ReplyDeleteGreat links again! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteBlodeuedd--Yes, Glue. It's a lot of fun and you can see how many friends/ bloggers are looking at the same books you are-- as well as movies, music, etc.
ReplyDeleteUriah-- You're welcome. I agree. I think the raw material would be more interesting than having another writer work on it.
Susan-- You betcha! They're so homely they're cute!
Louise-- I didn't think it was possible...Harriet? 2 star reviews? Wow!
Lezlie-- You're welcome!
Margot JR-- You're welcome!
Jackie-- You're welcome! You had some excellent discussion in the comments as well.
Thanks so much for the linkage! As always you manage to find some great sites and posts. I like those great Twitter buttons and the new to me blogs. I missed Lezlie's post and iPulp Fiction. Thanks for giving me lots to read.
ReplyDeleteI am always impressed that your links come from fresh sources on a regular basis. You keep some of the strong stand-bys (like ProBlogger) but always mix in what to me seem like random sources. And there is always good content. Big round of applause for your efforts!
ReplyDeleteBeth-- You're welcome!
ReplyDeleteMolly/Andy-- Okay. Someone get out the hat pin. My head's all swelled up! (Thanks!) :)
