Sunday Post #514

    

 
This week a surprise package came from Kathleen Baldwin, author of the School for Unusual Girls series. Long time readers know I'm a HUGE fan of the series and I'm so happy the fifth book has been published. She sent me a copy and I can't WAIT to read it. A huge thanks to Kathleen! 



Here is this week's lyric. 
So let's sink another drink    
Cause it'll give me time to think   

Here is the lyric f/ last week and the answer      

People of the earth can you hear me    
Came a voice from the sky on that magical night       
      

   Song of the week

    Oh, it does sound like a beautiful book. I am sure I would love the characters. I love the Midnight Diner Japanese series. Tokyo is definitely a city that never sleeps. I do enjoy quirky stories.

    Just got back a wee bit ago from watching Barbie. Hmmm..it wasn't exactly what I thought it would be. I am not sure it is a film to take kids to see. Of course, one dressed up as if she was going to the premiere with the OOAK Barbie that I had given her, and her brother brought his slim Ken along too. Miraculous, the dolls came home safe!

      An avid science fiction film fan donated a lot of his DVDs and he really has a list of worth science fiction movies.
      I like the Mad Max films too. The original Mad Max came out in 1979 by the director George Miller. 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗I hope you enjoy that new book in the series that you love! Happy weekend.

    The story seems to carry a different vibe western literature rarely has. I will look into it.

    This week's song is actually a fave. Good choice. I had no idea Unusual Girls was on book 5. That's great the author sent you a copy. That's a nice way to appreciate your support of the books.

    Isn't it wonderful when an author sends you a book out of the blue? and HA! didn't I tell you that you seemed to read a lot of books with "girl/girls" in the title? 😂

    Wow. What an unexpected gift to receive a copy of a book from the author herself. Cool. I thought I was special when Abraham Verghese sent me an email asking me to read his new book. Then I found out he sent it to everyone who read his first book. Ha!

    I'm a music ignoramus. The mystery lyrics always sound so familiar to me, but then I come back the next week and go Nope, never heard it before! :D

    It's wonderful the author sent you the final book in her series. So many authors don't appreciate bloggers anymore. 📗
