I wanted to give a shout out to Kim at Sophisticated Dorkiness today; please go visit her blog and enter her giveaway to celebrate Buy A Friend A Book Week.
She is hoping to encourage a shared reading experience and is hoping The Orchid Thief will be a great book for discussion. I read this nonfiction work by Susan Orlean this year and enjoyed it very much. My review is here.
In honor of this auspicious occasion, I will be sending my friend Wendy a book I reviewed last month: Atwood’s The Blind Assassin.
The weather is gorgeous so I’m off to buy some flowers so I can play outside today. Happy Spring! Happy “Buy-A-Friend-A-Book” Week!



Thanks for the shout-out Care
You betcha!

Too funny – It’s not “buy-me-a-book-and-I’ll-be-your-friend” week, silly! You have to give to get, ya know. Are you in bookmooch? I’ll send you book if you see anything I’ve got that you want!
