IT'S THE HOLY GRAIL!!!

(hoping that's not blasphemy)

Okay, not so much the holy grail but-

I GOT IT!!!

Yeah I did!

Boom-cha-ca-laca-laca-BOOM! Yeah baby!! *butt dance*

*chair dance*

What?

You know!

SPLA-DOWWWWW

*sigh*

Luckily my husband loves me huge and drove me to one of the farthest bookstores where they had 5 in stock. Note: It wasn't the big box stores that had them, hell no! It those little Coles stores in the malls. That's the ticket. For some reason the smaller stores get these books first and I couldn't be happier!! (Okay, should mention that Chapters owns all the bookstores in Canada as far as I know. Okay, there are indies but they don't stock romance, at least up here)

I haven't stopped talking a mile a minute since I bought the book.

But see, here's where Bob knows I love him!

I won't start this book until Tuesday because it'll suck me in and I won't come up for air until it is done. Since it is a long weekend and my hubby took today off to have a 4 day weekend with me, it wouldn't be fair if I decided to check out for a bit.

It's okay though. The important thing is that I have the book. I know it sounds crazy but just having one of those 'must have it now' books in my hands takes the pressure off. I know I have it and I know I will read it the first possible second I can. So all's good.

Hmmmm?

That's right, you know me too well and even poor Bob knew that when I told him I would be right back while he parked along the curb, he knew I wasn't coming back with only one book.

Note to Newbies - buying only one book is sacrilege. Must always buy two or more and when you buy six?

Heaven.

Okay, well there was this card, hang on!! I'm explaining!! *aside: Holy cow, try to get a word in edgewise around here.* Ahem. I had this mystery gift card that could be worth 5 to 1000 dollars when swiped. Thing is you have to spend 50 bucks to use it and then you don't know how much it will be but uh, it was only good for September AND I remembered to print off my TBB list last night and just happened to have it in my purse. I tell ya. I haven't had my TBB list for months but today I'm standing there with Z knowing that I must at least buy one more book when I suddenly remember the list is in my purse!!

Oh, all right!! Here is what else I bought. Sheesh!

Chick who can play with fire. Cool.

I can't remember where I first saw this one but I figured, what the hell, I'm in.

To the right, a book with an agoraphobic heroine. Since I've been there, done that and I'm still fighting the good fight daily, I thought it would be interesting to read. I believe it was Samantha who led me to this one.


I'm thinking it was Kristie's Top 25 that got Love is Blind put on the list but I can't quite remember and wow, I'm too lazy to run and figure it out (actually I did check and it's not on Kristie's list. Was it Tara Marie?). It was on the list, therefore it hit the pile.

Now, the Nora Robert's book is a funny thing. It was the store clerk who is romance friendly who recommended it because *gasp* Roberts is doing Vampires. Super cool!!

Great. Now this friggin' picture is going to mess the prettiness that is my blog. Hey! I heard that.

Anyways, what can I say. I've never really understood the appeal of SEP but I think I read an excerpt and now it's in paperback...

Oh, fine.

It was the cover. Lookit that cover!! I love that cover. It was all I could do not to buy the stupid thing in hardcover. And I won! So. I bought this for the cover.

Fine.
