In my car I have a Karen Kingsbury book, and at school I am reading TARZEN OF THE APES mostly because while reading a quiz to a student I discovered that I had never read it and find that I am enjoying it. I am not usually into fantasy but have even found a few of those that I enjoy. Horror, on the other hand, I have never enjoyed.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01728312794812033536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-64350408750596636.post-3659101844071568752009-04-06T15:49:00.000-04:002009-04-06T15:49:00.000-04:00You are definitely not alone.

I don't really know why I changed or why before I only stuck to one, but I'm glad that change has come about. Makes book reading more interesting I think. <BR/><BR/>I love covers of the books. Most of the time, that is why I pick the book. Your Pulling the Trigger cover would be a definite pick if I was covering browsing, but since it was a Julie Miller book, I would have bought it anyway. :-)<BR/><BR/>DeniseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-64350408750596636.post-53681372953000847762009-04-06T15:33:00.000-04:002009-04-06T15:33:00.000-04:00I like the hairy chest, too.

And they got his hair cut right, too. He's a Native American, but he's a former Army Ranger, too, who still has a lot of military in him. Long and flowing hair wouldn't fit the character.<BR/><BR/>I'm most fortunate with this cover!<BR/><BR/>JulieJulie Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13822178840729355383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-64350408750596636.post-69723704567402223142009-04-06T14:03:00.000-04:002009-04-06T14:03:00.000-04:00I figured I wasn't alone, but it's nice to hear.ws...I figured I wasn't alone, but it's nice to hear.<BR/><BR/>wstridgerunner and Ellen--I understand where you're coming from. I'm an Ozark hillbilly by birth. Even with a college degree, post-graduate work and 37 books under my belt, I find I still slip easily into y'alls and all y'alls when I'm around that side of the family. T'ain't nothin' wrong with bein' an educated hick. ;)<BR/><BR/>I have a very good friend from Alabama, too. I slide so easily into her deep Southern accent when I'm having a conversation with her. She knows I'm not making fun of her--in fact, she has said it makes her feel like home.<BR/><BR/>Makes me feel like home, too, when I can cast aside my years as an English teacher and relax with a "Hey" or "Y'all"<BR/><BR/>JulieJulie Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13822178840729355383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-64350408750596636.post-75949741234521345522009-04-06T13:15:00.000-04:002009-04-06T13:15:00.000-04:00Oh I forgot to add, Kudo's on your "Pulling the Tr...Oh I forgot to add, Kudo's on your "Pulling the Trigger" cover and applaud the fact that you didn't feature a waxed chest model.....it's so hard to picture a rough, tough hero when he looks like he just stepped out of wax salon.wstridgerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07431485556791617765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-64350408750596636.post-7185841456983466452009-04-06T12:10:00.000-04:002009-04-06T12:10:00.000-04:00I read a lot of different genres of books and alwa...I read a lot of different genres of books and always have. And although I do have my favorites I'll try any genre once and there are some I have read and not gone back to. And after years of teaching I learned how to relate to many different types of people so that I could talk to anyone about their children in a way they could understand. And I am told by others that even my accent changes depending on who I am talking to. Hope this makes sense.EllenToohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06114930219445131840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-64350408750596636.post-50593008416325170402009-04-06T12:00:00.000-04:002009-04-06T12:00:00.000-04:00Oh goodness no!!

I constantly have my brain going in different directions.....I'm a Librarian but I was also born and raised in Southern West Virginia, so I have this educated country hick thing going on in my personality. One of my uncles called me (in a joking manner), an educated redneck and that that was a dagerous breed! LOL<BR/><BR/>So, while I'm looking up reference books for patrons, I end our conversations with "Ya'll come back now, ya hear!" :D<BR/><BR/>I think a person that has the ability to diversify in their social, conversational and writing skills has the unique ability to make the most out of any given moment.<BR/><BR/>Of course you could just say that we're all just a little bit crazy too! *g*wstridgerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07431485556791617765noreply@blogger.com
