Tuesday Thingers... on Wednesday


Today's Question: The LT Home Page feature. How are you liking it? Or not? Do you go here when you log into LT or do you use your profile page more?

I always log into the Home Page feature. I like it a bit because that’s where I get a few recommendations for reading. Also, I can quickly search my whole library from there. I also use my profile page a lot; I have fun playing around with Statistics (just learned what median/ mean book obscurity means!). I also use the profile page to get to my Groups, where I spend a lot of time.

I'm in: ARC Junkies, Early Reviwers (watched); List Five Things Parlor Game, Historical Fiction, Medieval Europe.
I like the home page too. I look at the connection news and the bookstore signings and events, not that I actually. I didn't think you had a choice as far as the home page.

A giveaway winner, and another giveaway

The winner of the Girl in a Blue Dress contest is... Anna, of Diary of An Eccentric ! My new contest is for a copy of The Shape of Mercy , by Susan Meissner. According to Publisher's Weekly : Meissner's newest novel is potentially life-changing, the kind of inspirational fiction that prompts readers to call up old friends, lost loves or fallen-away family members to tell them that all is forgiven and that life is too short for holding grudges. Achingly romantic, the novel features the legacy of Mercy Hayworth—a young woman convicted during the Salem witch trials—whose words reach out from the past to forever transform the lives of two present-day women. These book lovers—Abigail Boyles, elderly, bitter and frail, and Lauren Lars Durough, wealthy, earnest and young—become unlikely friends, drawn together over the untimely death of Mercy, whose precious diary is all that remains of her too short life. And what a diary! Mercy's words not only beguile but help Abigail and Lars...
