The #NYTimes Top 15 (25) #BestSellers in Fiction week ending 8-10-14 PLUS #Blog Updates!


Welcome! Another week of great books has gone by and I can't wait to see what books hit the Best Seller list! This post is always posted by NOON every Sunday and usually earlier!

This week I ended up taking a small 'book and blog vacation'. I needed it! The first thing that happened after I did the post on Wednesday was I hit some keys on my keyboard that made the keyboard not able to work! I couldn't type a thing, except for the 'screen' keyboard! Leave it to me! All I was trying to do after an Update was to turn the backlit keyboard off when I wasn't typing. I failed! I completely turned the keyboard OFF! Do you know how hard it is to use a keyboard on the screen? WOW! I tried to fix it myself for a day, and the 2nd day I called the good, 'ole trusty Geek Squad! They fixed it! So after 2 days of driving myself insane, it was fixed! It now turns off when I am not typing, just like I wanted it to! It turns on when I AM typing, just like I wanted it to! I LOVE it now!
I also had a few other things non-blog related I needed to get done, and decided this was the week I was going to get those things done! I did! I don't know about those of you who have blogs, but we read a LOT, and some things around the house just do not get done! I know you must go through this, too, so you know how things can get WAY behind! That is what I had to take care of, those things are now caught up, and I think I'm in good shape, at least I HOPE I am! (I can think of a few more things that need tending to, but those can wait! LOL!) Now I am anxiously looking forward to getting back to the books again!

Update - I am behind on getting the winners for the Hops and the one book, The House on Lavender Lane, and I WILL be doing that THIS UPCOMING WEEK! Watch your email in case you have won! I will email you first and wait for a reply within 48 hours! If I don't hear back from you then I move on to the next one! I'm excited to be giving away the prizes!
