Lovely Blog Award!

Another special award came my way this week from the wonderful Yvette Kelly! Thank you! Yvette loves true crime novels and she has a great blog called True Crime Book Reviews where she has current book reviews, but you can also search by author or type of crime to find past reviews! And along with a great blog she has a monthly giveaway! Click on her blog name above and the link will take you right to her blog!

So now onto what the award is... One Lovely Blog Award is given to new blogs and blogging friends.

2.Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you've newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

Helen said...

Hey, Suzanne. I know you have a lovely blog so you really do deserve an award. :) Congrats!

Yvette Kelly said...

My pleasure Suzanne.You totally deserve the award.And a BIG thank you for always visiting my blog.I love comments and I am offically in the market to read a different type of book this week.Especially since last night there were a bunch of ants at my office desk all crawling around and this morning they were all dead(i didnt spray anything at all)and my first thought was they must have been part of a religious sect.So I think I need to cool down on the true crime books and read something different for a change.This is where you come in.I am coming later to read up on your latest reviews so I can decide.

Suzanne Yester said...

Wow Yvette! Did you think maybe the ants were part of a conspiracy by a fiction lover to steal you away for a few books? ;-) Well, my first recommendation would be Pillars of the Earth (first post). If you don't mind the medieval setting , and actually you'd probably forget about that after you start meeting the characters. Plenty of 'crime' there! If you feel like a little romance, but not your typical romance, I'd recommend next The Time Travelers Wife. Guy falls in love with a girl, but has a slight problem he shifts in time without knowing when and he meets his girl thru different ages of her life. Any of my favorite books are good. And yes, check out my reviews...you should find something!
And thanks for considering my 'reading list' and giving me such a Lovely Award!
