Happy Mother's Day to Everyone!!!

I am sure who will be online or not.. so before I head out of the door at work... I want to post this:

Happy Mother's Day to All...
I don't care if you have kids or not...
if you have a hubby or not... but if you do... that's just as worst as a kid...
and if you don't have a hubby or kids...
then you got ME!!!
So, Happy Mother's Day... Enjoy your flowers. Yes, I do love these!!!

Oh and don't forget about Brooke's sandwich contest... She gets hungry everytime she sees what you guys are giving... You guys are the best!!! What more can a girl ask for... okay maybe a little Edward on the side... or Lucien... or the Sexy Devil cover guy... oh you get the idea =)

Love you!

I'm Back!!

I'm back everyone! This is Brooke! I was going through my books and found some that I read and are not in use anymore. I wanted to have a little fun and have a contest but be warned these books are in O.K. condition (due to spine creasing, few tears, etc.) so my mother said that I just have to give those away. The book is called Speak no Evil [click on Speak no Evil for a sonopsis] by Allison Brennan. This book is kind of C.S.I. like. It is listed on the book blurh as a romantic suspense.



Never mind my mother said that I can [because she doesn't like her name in big capital letters].
I am going to have some fun and have a Book Nerd contest!! Here's the DEETS:

In order to enter the contest you have to:
Send in a creative idea for a sandwich! That's right you heard me, a sandwich. It's that simple.
Whoever has the most creative idea will win. [P.S. it has to be edible and tasty](I'm tired of ham and turkey)

The contest will end Monday @ 6 central so mark your calendars!

The prize: A [slightly used and o.k. condition] Speak no Evil book by Allison Brennan.
and did I mention it only costs an idea!!

So sign up now!!!!!!!!!!


LOVE BROOKES-A-MILLION!

Book Diet ~ Smook Diet!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!! In our little country town, Saturday the weather was absolute beautiful and Sunday was okay with some afternoon thunderstorms...

Now... for those that don't know... besides my regular day job (accountant), I have picked up a side job at a local plantation by my house. I help to cater whatever events they have if needed... I have done two events in the past two weeks and Friday was my first paycheck. So, as promised to myself... I would treat myself to some books!!!
That is why I got the job... to buy books (yea really.... no ~ part of the reason is Brooke's school is hosting a trip next summer to France/Spain and I WOULD LOVE TO SEND HER, so to help out with the cost of sending her and possibly ME, I have picked up this job to save the money.)
But first I wanted to treat myself!!! So, I worked again Saturday alllll day from 9 in the morning till 7 that night non-stop!!!
So today (Sunday), we did our normal grocery shopping and Brooke wanted to buy herself a couple of things... so we agreed she could go to the mall if she took me (because she drives) to Borders!!!!


And this is what I walked away with... are you ready for this...

Get ready for this one ladies!!!!

I am not sure you guys are ready for this one...


Now for this book, I will need to get Trail by Fire first, before reading this one... But I could NOT resist the cover! You want to talk about smokin' hawt!!!

Then thanks to Barbara and Charlotte for introducing me to this treat of a book...

Thanks to Dottie for allowing me to see this on her site... and I could not resist a title like this..

Thanks to the ladies at Lust In Time and Barbara again.... for making me look at this hot cover for ohhh sooo long...
Now, most of you know that me and Erotic Horizon did a duel review on Cry Wolf by Patricia Briggs and they heard my only complaint about the book was that it did not tie in properly with the beginning of the actually story... so when I saw the cover it cried my name.... no really I am telling you, it was really crying. It was saying "Cecile **sniff sniff***, you need to read me to finish the story that you started to be satisfied." Now, come on... we all know you can not argue with a book and win!! So, I bought it....

I bought this book because I am trying to get my grubby hands on this series before I start reading... so when I saw this one... (because of my bad experiences of leaving a book behind and it not being there when I return...) I bought it...


Then thanks to VampGirl's week long drool fest over these brothers... I needed to ge this book to start reading the series.... I had to buy it.... I mean, it was treat to me day!!!



Now for the one I have really been saving for you guys...


This one...well... Hell, I will admit as any grown woman should... I bought this strictly for the cover.... Hell, it could have been in Spanish (and I don't even speak Spanish).. it could have been about how to fix a car part or how to... Hell, I didn't give a sh*t what the book was about, I just wanted to damn thing!!!!! Actually the blurh was pretty hot!!!! So, I might have to skip the BDB series just to read this one first lol!!!

And here is what got my juices going in Borders... I think I was even a little flush and drooling after looking at the cover... because there was actually a cute guy not far from me that keep looking at me... wonder why... lol!!!! Probably because of the drool...


Now what you think about that cover VampGirl???
Oh and Charlotte and Vamp.... you see what kind of hussy you have trained here!!!!!
I catch on quick!!! If this is what being a hussy is alllll about... girls I am so in over my head it ain't funny!!!!

***Cecile stands up....clears her throat....***
Hi, my name is Cecile and I am addicted to books. As you can see, I have a problem. The first step they say is admitting you have one... The second step is going buy more books.. I willl see you at my next meeting with some more books in hand***
Still staring at Sexy Devils!!!!!!!


Now, I want to thank everyone for posting reviews, giving your insights to books and to posting your widgets and you pictures of books; because without you guys, I would never know about new authors or exciting books to read. So, to everyones site that I have visited/will continue to visit thank you because i have walked away with something... a book in hand!!!! Thank you!!! You guys are awesome!!!

You guys are Awesome!

I have to say that I have some awesome friends!!! You guys did a wonderful job appeasing my ideas of how you pick out a book. Curiosity got the best of the cat and I had to know how others think!!!

Well.... if you read on Barbara's site.. she thought she was a dork because she went to see and liked the Hannah Montana movie... well, I wanted to make her feel better about herself...

The story I told her, For my birthday last year... yes I throw myself bday parties!!! My bday is the day before halloween... so we have costume parties... so I dressed up as a cute/sexy maid... well.... I absolutely love the song "See You Again"... well, I was inside my house with a couple of friends... we were (dont want to offend anyone) ***drinking a little*** and my song came on the radio and watch out when a song I know comes on the radio... I told Barbara I would make her pee in her pants with that story... but here are the pictures...

The true sight of a dork!!!

This is when I heard it on the radio... I immediately started singing... and here the how the story unfolds...

Then I proceed to get on my countertop and finish the song off in style....
I did not need any alcohol to do this mind you...

Oh, yes... I did the hand thing....

The girl in the pictures with me is like my baby sister!!! We have been knowing each other for almost 8 years.

Now if you did not laugh at this... I don't know what to say!!!
