Book Worm Friday


The House on Tradd Street
Practical Melanie Middleton hates to admit she can see ghosts. But she’s going to have to accept it. An old man she recently met has died, leaving her his historic Tradd Street home, complete with housekeeper, dog—and a family of ghosts anxious to tell her their secrets.

Enter Jack Trenholm, a gorgeous writer obsessed with unsolved mysteries. He has reason to believe that diamonds from the Confederate Treasury are hidden in the house. So he turns the charm on with Melanie, only to discover he’s the smitten one...

It turns out Jack’s search has caught the attention of a malevolent ghost. Now, Jack and Melanie must unravel a mystery of passion, heartbreak—and even murder.

This was a very fast paced, light read book. It didn't take me long to finish it and I loved the descriptions of the old houses and antiques! I'm happy to see that Karen White is coming out with a 2nd book as I would like to follow Melanie in her Ghostly hunts.

This one is also up for grabs on my Bookshelf page. I have been wondering if I should keep going with my bookshelf or stop, Have you stopped by? DO you buy second hand books?

Closing Etsy.com Shop

I'm thinking about closing my Etsy.com shop inorder to focus on my Bookstore and leaving my Stitcheries as a Pure Fun Hobby so if there is anything that you'd like to purchase please do so within the next week.
I feel so Blessed with the response ppl are having with the bookstore, I have gotten more replies about donations of books this past week than I had thought I'd get. I have also received an invitation to attend a Chamber of Commerce meeting about Small Business's in the area. I'm looking forward to that but I am nervouse about meeting new ppl. I had better get over this fear fast HUH!!

Bookstore Dream

I talked to the owner of the building that I want to lease today, He called and said that he closes on it on March 1st, after that he needs to do some major work to the inside, such as a Bathroom..Yes, No Bathroom! I would need one! He has no idea what he wants to lease it for yet, he is still working on apartments upstairs, they are also pretty rundown, such a shame, so much history. We are talking about maybe a May 2008 opening..Looking at buying books now, Friends and family are doing their part, Bless Them, but you can never have to many books. OH My Gosh... the decorating ideas are flowing tonight, I'm not sure if I'll be able to sleep..Bookshelves and very pretty wallhangings and maybe a tiny sitting area.

Thank You all, I'm starting to feel like myself again, not so run down.

9th Bday and a Dream


We had a Birthday party for my DD Sat. the 9th, She received her first Webkins and is in love with it! This week has been so busy with 2 Snow days and DH having to drive my truck to work. I'm busy trying to finish a Stitchery and keep a house clean of mud and snow!
I'm getting closer to my goal of opening my own Bookstore, I love the idea of having a used bookstore! I always have and DH is tired of me talking about it and has said for me to get prices on permits and storefronts for rent here in town. I have talked to the Chamber of Commerce and have gotten some great responses about places for lease. While the paperwork is getting ready and I have my ducks in a row I'm collecting as many books as I can!!
You can never have too many!
I have set a goal of opening before the end of this year, it won't happen over night but I'm one step closer!
I'm so excited and scared at the same time but if I don't try then I'll never know if I'm good at it or if I'll even like running a bookstore.
I'll be posting alot about this new venture, Be ready :)
