How funny that your realtives live in Ogden! You <i>must</i> read Mistborn. Best epic fantasy I've read. Are you on Goodreads? If you are, add me. We can share book recommendations! <br />http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1330074-kimberly<br />Also, I'm so sorry about your Grandma!Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09672829028363509427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-33214643105220945922011-06-29T11:32:24.579-04:002011-06-29T11:32:24.579-04:00This post makes me think that, of all the bloggers...This post makes me think that, of all the bloggers here, you probably have the most similar tastes to mine. Both the books in your giveaway are books I've been meaning to read for a long time, first of all, especially <i>Mistborn</i>, which my husband, brothers, and dad are all in love with. I've read a couple other Brandon Sandersons and really enjoyed them (especially what he's doing with the Wheel of Time series!) so I'm looking forward to when I finally get to that one. <br /><br />Also, it was a funny surprise that you live in Ogden! My sister-in-law and her husband live in Ogden, and the rest of my in-laws live in Orem.<br /><br />I also really love the section about your grandpa. I actually just learned last night that my aunts and uncles are starting to get my grandmother's things ready (she's not dying yet, but they're preparing in advance) and that has put her on my mind a lot. I've always kind of idolized her the way you do with your grandpa. <br /><br />Anyway... I could actually keep talking about things in your post, but I think I will stop now. :)mkgshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10032027328606342071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-73025987282128254352011-06-28T23:48:29.971-04:002011-06-28T23:48:29.971-04:00Love this!

I'll have to get you to help me. :)Erin O.http://www.todaysmama.com/erinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-61175354115073091032011-06-28T23:32:30.004-04:002011-06-28T23:32:30.004-04:00Thank you to all that read through my entire post!...Thank you to all that read through my entire post!

I love coincidences and weird happenings like that too, I love hearing about them. <br /><br />Thanks, Cozy!<br /><br />Short Story Slore- lol, I'm glad you liked the little history blurb about 25th street, I just couldn't help myself. And LOST, oh my. That series! I just don't know <i>who</i> to trust or what the heck is going on, I LOVE that. Charlie is my favorite character, hands down.<br /><br />Enbrethiliel- thank you so much! I was actually a little worried about throwing that in, thinking that people may not find it interesting. But I just had to keep it. : ) Gave me a chance to brag about him. <br /><br />Deirdra- Thank you for the compliments.I would be happy to do an interview with you, however, this <i>is</i> a collaborative blog, so I may not be the only reviewer at TB&TB you want to interview. <br /><br />Sarah- Thanks! Archery is a blast, I have so much fun with it. As for the book. It was a Christian romance/mystery/action novel. ( I know, of all the genres for a male bookstore manager to be reading.) Anyway, it's called... Counting Stars.
