bookgoonie’s World
- Made my first shirt by screen printing and then had to make 18 more.
- My soul was happy with the whole family reading in the pool on Sunday.Which is code for: No one was bothering me while I was trying to read. Notice my Johnson County way of water-proofing my eReader.

Got a lot of books this week, Amy! Ha.
Reading by the pool with a margarita sounds lovely right about now.
Ya. Half-Price Books!!! I’ve got all the Elder Races physical books now. I just need to read them & see what all the hub-bub is about.
Poolside is the only way to read in TX. Too HOT!
Um, your BOUGHT pile this week is awesomesauce!
I still haven’t read Benny Imura. I think I just want to collect them all first at this point. LOL…
Thanks for the shout out, and your brilliant waterproof eReader idea…
YES! *pumps fist* You’re going to start the Psy-Changeling books? I’m so glad. You’ll love them. I promise! Maybe I need to revive my Slave to Sensation read-along idea.
Also, aren’t you brave! I couldn’t trust my Kindle to a ziploc bag. No matter how strong they may be, I’d find a way to rip a hole in it.
Thanks for the link love
You’ve been doing a ton of reading – way to go! Reading by the pool sounds just perfect and I may have to follow your lead with the e-reader water proofing. Cute shirt too!
LOL! You’ve got mad skills when it comes to water proofing your stuff. And you should open a t-shirt making business.
