THE BEDTIME BOOK TAG

I was tagged for this post by Cait from PAPER FURY! Go have a look-see at her tag post because it gave me the giggles, well actually... the guffaws. It gave me the guffaws.

1. A BOOK THAT KEPT ME UP ALL NIGHT.

There have been plenty of books that have kept me up all night with their delectable storylines, but OF BREAKABLE THINGS sets itself apart because I had been in a deep dark reading slump and not only did it get me actively reading again, I truthfully could not close it until I was finished. It is a YA Paranormal about spirits. I say spirits because they don't like being called ghosts. You can read my review, HERE. As an ebook it is only $3.03. The sequel OF DELICATE PIECES comes out October 20th.

2. A BOOK THAT MADE ME SCARED TO SLEEP.

The friend who gave me her paperback of THE EXORCIST to read had a toddler and a newborn, and every time they made a weird noise (which toddlers and newborns do quite often) she thought they were becoming possessed. Hehe.

3. A BOOK THAT MADE ME GO TO SLEEP.

BUT IN A GOOD WAY!

I have the audiobook of BROWN GIRL DREAMING, narrated by the author. Her voice was so soothing, the first night I listened to it, she lulled me to sleep.

I thought this sleepy puppy would be a good palate cleanser after the demonic GIF. You are welcome.

4. A BOOK THAT LEFT ME TOSSING AND TURNING THE NIGHT BEFORE IN ANTICIPATION OF ITS RELEASE...

The last four of the Harry Potter books (the first three were already published when we started reading them). We went to all four of the Barnes and Noble midnight release parties, although for the last book we never got inside because of the crowds, but we reveled with everyone outside in the parking lot until midnight. We (my son, my nephew, and myself) then went to our favorite all night grocery store to buy it from their fairly large book section.
