Welcome! It's been another week of GREAT books! I can't wait to see which ones made the list! This article is always posted by NOON every Sunday! Thanks for coming by!

SORRY ABOUT THE L O N G DELAY! I am having some computer issues. My battery is dying (and this is not even 2 years old yet! Grrr!) I really have the WORST luck when it comes to conputers! UGH!!! I really pick the bad ones for some reason???

Okay! I know you want to get to the books! Enjoy!

Thank you for celebrating Rare Disease Day 2015 with me today/yesterday! It is SO important to bring awareness to rare diseases! Thank YOU!! Speaking of rare diseases, sometimes they interrupt what we want to do, such as writing book reviews, I have several ready to post but I need to go through and edit them one more time, so please be patient while I get that done. I will be posting those this week! Finally, huh! Let's just say these below zero temperatures even during the daytie, then at night we were hitting -35 really took it's toll on my body, how about you? We went through 6 WEEKS of that, and we have tonight to get through SO FRIGIDLY, then we get a SMALL BREAK for a few nights, then they drop again! I don't know about you, but I can't tolerate these temperatures! I'm DONE! I will be posting them this week! How about YOU? How are YOU faring during these LOW temps? Let us know in the COMMENTS!

There they are! The 15 BESTSELLING BOOKS for the week ending March 1, 2015!
WOW! Did you see that last book's ebook price compared to the hard cover? WHEW!! LESS THAN $2 between the ebook and the print copy! WOW!! I've been noticing on NetGalley the publisher's prices are pretty close to the ebooks' and I see here maybe they are going to be getting closer if not the same? I surely hope they are NOT!
I am going to buy Still Alice by Lisa Genova. I don't know how well I'll do reading it as Alzheimer's has taken away several family members and friends, so I'll just try it out. I just want to see what she thinks as she knows she is passing. I guess I missed this when I lost my mother. When she was dying I got some type of skin disease, and not even the University of Michigan could diagnose it, so that kep me AWAY from her! She was scared of catching it - because she could expire sooner than later. I never got that one on one time with my own mother. I sometimes wonser if I was SPARED if??? I'll never know.
And 50 - I'll be 50 ONE DAY!!!!!!!!!!! Grrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!! If, If, IF!!!!! ALLLLLL "4" of them! NO!!!!!!!!!!!! It's really ENOUGH already!
Here are the rest!!!!! (I also see paying for your book to be a commercial on the Kindle pays off for our last book. That book is 2 years old or almost! This list STINKS ANYMORE! Or at least it's EASILY INFLUENCED! I took the (20) off the title! LOL!) I'll see you next week for this same post! Happy reading and I'll see you next week with ZERO computer problems!!!! Thanks for being patient and understanding!
