Sunday Salon: Odds and Ends

Some bookish and non-bookish musings this Sunday morning.

My email program’s spell check, for some reason, has decided that I speak French. It’s actually quite frustrating that I can’t figure out how to convince it that I don’t actually speak French. And now Firefox is acting up. (So far I’ve misspelled: spell, some, reason, that, speak, quite, and now…. go figure.a)

In case you haven’t heard, Flashlight Worthy Book Recommendations has come up with a list of The Best Young Adult Books of 2009, as inpsired by Kelly at YAnnabe’s Unsung YA list. Full disclosure: somehow I was asked to participate on this list, and I did send a book in. It’s still a quite brilliant list, though. And stick around to check out the site a bit.

Quite a few people have signed up for our Catcher in the Rye read along which starts next Sunday. Here’s a list of the people who’ll be participating so far:

Amanda at The Zen Leaf
Heather at Tales of a Capricious Reader
Jackie at Farmlane Books
Rob at Books are Like Candy Corn
Nan’s Corner of the Web
Rmlrhonda
Beth at Thinking of Thinking
Kim at Page After Page
Suko at Suko’s Notebook
Bree at The Things We Read
Jill at Fizzy Thoughts
Corinne at The Book Nest

You know you want to join in!

Want to know what C, M and I are all excited for this Friday? The Lightning Thief opens! Squee! Here’s a bit of a teaser…


Oh, and while you’re waiting, why not find out your demigod power? (Me, I’m the child of Grover. Kind of odd, but I think I like it.)

What’s on your mind today?
