Cover Change and Next Pawty


I have heard from @ConfuciousCat's mom. First of all she is so excited to attend the next #readpawty which is Monday December 12th, 2011 at 8 pm EST. She wants to discuss her books and answer all your questions. If I know CC, he will make sure she answers everything! If you want to submit your questions ahead of time so Pat can prepare, email them to me and I will forward them on.

The second thing is Pat has changed the cover of her book, Entanglements. She hopes that we all like it. I think it fits the book SO much better that the original cover.

I thought I would depart a bit from our pet mystery books and feature a short story holiday book. I have not read it yet, but will do that before the meeting in case it isn't up to my "high standards". Ha! Mario's Mom just got a Nook, so I will be looking for ebooks on B&N more than on Amazon. My other criteria is that there are both affordable paperback and ebook versions available.

As of right now, the choice is:

That Holiday Feeling: Silver Bells/The Perfect Holiday/Under the Christmas Tree
by Debbie Macomber, Sherryl Woods, Robyn Carr

Barnes and Noble (also links to paperback page)
Amazon (all versions listed)

don't forget to check your libraries and elibrary at Overdrive.com . I will get a copy from my library this afternoon.

Also, try to read another book that you would like featured. I have several in the que, a suggestion from Pumpkinpuddy "confessions of a catnip junkie" (I am reading it now, and it is to die for!); Curiosity Thrilled the Cat ; Cat on Thin Ice; Cat Among the Pigeons (Zvonek 08 Feline Intelligence) (second book is due out anyday);

I noticed that there are a number of free or cheap holiday/Christmas ebooks on B&N. I found one short story book with a Hanukkah story, but the paperback was about $10, so apologies to Pumpkinpuddy. CAUTION - There are also some, um, books that I think feature Brittany the exotic Spam girl (shivers).

See you all December 12!

  1. Mario's mom here - I love the Nook. Bought Enganglements again to download on the Nook (was only 99 cents)Now I should be able to finish the book unless i fall asleep (which can and does happen). Will look forward to talk with the author. Might submit a question or two after I get into the book a little bit.

  3. 'That Holiday Feeling' is free for Amazon Prime members to borrow. I also check my library (Overdrive system) and Lendle. Not available from either one. But I'm an Amazon Prime member so I'll be able to read it for free!
