BLOGGING: It's Tuesday, Where are You?
It's Groundhog Day! Six more weeks of winter would be great news around here, so I don't care what the ground hog does.
Still taking suggestions for The Bookword Game this week, head on over here to add your word. Suey will have a poll up after suggestions close on Wednesday.
In reading I am in England, circa 1930, and the butler has been shot! How ironic! It's my first read of a Georgette Heyer, a British house mystery, based on Agatha Christie type mysteries. (Why Shoot a Butler? by Georgette Heyer)
Where is reading taking you today? Leave a comment, write a post, spread the word.
