Omg, so, are you looking to escape your life for a little while? Would loove a book you can just get lost in, can't stop reading??  Happen to loove gorgeous dresses, and maybe even The Bachelor?? lol!  Well, you are in for a treat, mah' little friend : )  Kiera Cass is THE most delightful little writer - in my mind, now she's my new BFF - she's sooo cute!  Wait 'til the very endie bit of each of her books in The Selection Series, you will fall in love with Kiera Cass, and you will already have fallen in love, or a very good friendship, with America Singer, the main character in this Kiera Cass series.  






 You can buy The Selection Series in a lovely Box Set, which is how I came to read these delightful, and thoughtful, little books... or you can buy them individualt, starting with The Selection, by Kiera Cass, then The Elite (surprise - by Kiera Cass), and then The One, by, guess who?? Kiera Cass!) And then there's a Bonus Book (yahoo!), The Selection Stories, from the points of view of Prince Maxon and Aspen, America Singer's two love interests in the books...



 



 But, wait, there's more! I see there are some Kiera Cass books on Amazon that I haven't even read, yet - yahoo! Hello, rainy days - rainy days are very exciting for us, because we view rainy days as reading days - without the guilt of the sunny day to make you feel like maybe you SHOULD go for a walk, or something... lol!



 


Wow, I am blown away by these lovely little books - you really do just get all swept up in America Singer's life, and you want to know more and more about America Singer... and I really liked the way the author, Kiera Cass, wove all sorts of very interesting political and social ideas into the stories... the caste system, with people from all the castes, from caste one through caste eight, and how the caste sytem had affected them all - very, very interesting... a great mix of love stories mixed in with social change, and all in a love triangle, to boot?? lol!  You will loove these books by Kiera Cass - and remember to read the wee bit at the end of each book - you'll laugh out loud!

Oh, and if you're looking for a great present to give to someone who loves to get lost in a great book, oh, man, this is a very nice gift set - the book covers, themselves, are very pretty.. and you can pass them around amonst your family and friends, so you can all ask, ooh, what's America doing, right now??  Oooh, I love that part!... This is the sort of conversation we have, around here, because I got this Kiera Cass Selection Series, the Box Set, from my own beautiful and charming daughter, Cara - me loves her soo much!!  Otay, happy reading!! : )

Happy Reading, my lovely little reading friends! Ailsa : )

Survivor San Juan del Sur - Blood vs. Water - What, Drew's Clever Plan didn't pan out? Shocking! And it was so well thought out, too... lol!














Wow, I canny believe we're at Season 29 of Survivor - amazing! lol!  Where did the time go?? So this is yet another Blood vs. Water, which, typically, I don't really like - I get fed up with seeing the same people, over and over - bleah, give us all new people...was very unhappy to see the 'Tweenies' - ugh, so loud and squeaky - but now that one of them is gone, things are much better...









Oh, here's a pic of the remaining 'Tweenie' - and Drew, the ludicroulsy arrogant guy who was voted out, tonight, after throwing the competition - what an idiot... he's pretty stupid... very pretty, and really, really stooopid.... but, he got his time on TV, sooo, you know, still good! lol!

I am a huuge Survivor fan, though - and I thank you if you've been reading me for years - lol!  Tank youse! Me appreciates you : )  I would never miss survivor, even if it IS full of people we already know, and blood vs. water... ick. I like when everyone arrives on the island, or some God-forsaken place, and romance abounds - now, that I like! haha! I loves me a little showmance!  Look at Rob and Amber, and now they have this whole very sweet little family - how amazing is that? Thanks, Survivor, for the fun romances!






And here's a little eye-candy for da ladies (and some gents - lol!) - ah' loves me a li'l Jeff Probst! Man, he never changes... someone should look into that DNA, see what's going on, there - hahaha!

So has been a little weird on survivor, already, and a little tricky to write about, since, you know, you've prolly noticed, too, who has been voted out, first... hmmm. But I cannot stand when someone is soo arrogant, they leave with an Idol in their pocket. How stooopid is that? Grrrr...they deserve everything they get, for that level of arrogance... and it's not like there won't be another Idol - have they never watched Survivor, before? But I'm happy when someone is voted out who doesn't need the money - not completely sure why that bothers me so much, but I love to see someone win Survivor, or any other game, who really needs the money - those are the people I root for - and the funny ones, and the nice ones, and the fair ones... buuut, that said, the crazy ones are fun to watch - those little loooonies are always up to something crazy - makes the game a lot of fun...

Otay, need more tea!  Stay safe - are these some crazy days where you're all of a sudden thinking about your health all the time?? Geesh!  So, stay safe, have fun, and have yourself a lovely wee treat!  See you, soon!  Your Survivor Buddy, Ailsa : )

 The Rosie Effect, the second book in Graeme Simsion's Rosie Series (well, I'm hoping it's a Rosie SERIES - hahahaha!  I can't get enough of Don and his hilarious and touching adventures - lol!  So sweet, so funny... oh, man, you are a'gonna looove these beautiful books!

The Rosie Project, by Graeme Simsion.  Oh, man, you're in for such a treat!

Yahooo, The Rosie Effect just came out, and I've just finished it, and can't stop smiling - it is AMAZING, a phenomenal continuation of Don Tillman's life with his new wife, Rosie...oh, man, what a great read!!  You are gonna LOVE it, for sures!

My beautiful, loving, caring, brilliantly funny daughter, Cara, got me a copy of The Rosie Effect, yesterday - and a copy for herself and her wonderful fiance...and I thought, initially, I could so easily have read their copy, when they were done, but my lovely Cara said that no, she really loved the author, Graeme Simsion, and really wanted to support him in every possible way, and so she bought two copies - how incredibly sweet is that?

So I was up all last night, reading The Rosie Effect - is soo good, I had to force myself to put the book down, and go to bed - so I finally put the book down at 3:37am...lol!  and then I got up, today (errrr, not very early, totally justified but, one, it's my own life, I'll get up when me wants to, right? It's my mother's voice in my head that tries to shame me into getting up early - hahaha!  That only works when she's in the same house as me - lol!  And, two, I was totally up really late, reading something really important, sooo, thus the sleep in day? lol!  And then I had a quick piece of pizza, started reading, got up to refill my tea cup (and have some apple pie - all lovely and cold, like I like it!), then straight back to my fantastic book, The Rosie Effect - wow, you feel like you've just gone on the most amazing journey through a year in Don's life.... oh, man, I can't recommend this book highly enough - go get it, or order it through Amazon - oh, and if you haven't read The Rosie Project, yet, grab that one up, too, and read the Rosie Project, first, and then The Rosie Effect - oh, what a treat for you!!

You are gonna laugh so hard, you'll chuckle, you'll guffaw, you'll smile so big, you'll be beaming... is just such a beautiful read, is so heartwarming, so smart, and so funny... you'll be so involved in the lives of all the characters - Don Tillman, Rosie, his wife, the new baby-on-the-way, Gene, the three 'b's - B1, B2 and B3 - hilarious! Oh, so sweet! And so smart!  Am I saying enough to let you know how much I love the Rosie Effect? These books are gonna make GREAT movies - oh, I'll link this page back to my first page on The Rosie Project, so you can see who I thought would be great to play Don, Rosie and Gene in the movie version of The Rosie Project and The Rosie Effect.

Graeme Simsion, the author of The Rosie Project, and the sequel, The Rosie Effect, is such an incredibly brilliant author. We were soo lucky, earlier in the summer - we got to 'talk' with Graeme Simsion on this Twitter chat thing that they had - was pretty funny, since although I have quite a few Twitter Followers, and I really like Twitter, I realy did not know how that whole thing worked, so it took a minute for me to figure that out, and end up on the same Twitter page as everyone else - haha!   But it was soo much fun to feel a real 'live' connection to such an amazing author. Graeme Simsion is, by far, one of the best authors I've ever read, and if you only know me a weeeee bit, you'll know I'm an avid reader, and always have been ...

And I don't think this book, #TheRosieProject, or it's sequel, #TheRosieEffect, are necessarily all about #Autism or #Aspergers, they are just a part of Don's wonderful and delightful personality, just the way he is, and I loove that approach. #GraemeSimsion's books are for everyone, but if you happen to have a special space in your heart for some really lovely, really special people, these books will be even more meaningful and precious to you, as they were for me : )




Oh, boy, I cannot wait for everyone to read Graeme Simsion's, The Rosie Project, and The Rosie Effect.

Okay, it's been hours and hours of living precariously through Don's life, so I have to go get something to eat - am leaning toward a lovely (and healthy, I'm assuming) piece of German Chocolate Cake - no tell Don! hahahaha!  You're gonna love the books!  Your Little Reader Buddy, Ailsa : )
