It's a good thing we have a sense of humor. I think many bloggers can relate to this humorous card. My husband gave me the card above for Valentine's Day (along with a more traditional card), in an envelope addressed to "Suko". I do find this quite funny, and "spot on"--I've watched numerous eyes glaze over when I've talked at length about my blog. ;)

Please help me to congratulate Laura from Library of Clean Reads and traveler. Each has won a copy of The Pact by Mitchell S. Karnes. Congratulations to both of you! Dear readers, if you didn't win this time, please scroll down and take a look at the other book giveaways listed on the right side of my blog. I update this list frequently, so check back as often as you wish for new book giveaways.

Isn't she lovely? GoneReading, a glorious online gift shop for readers, now has a Jane Austen action figure available, part of an entire collection devoted to this English novelist. Like me, you may think of Jane Austen as more cerebral than action-oriented, but imagine her lending unmistakeable poise and presence to your writing desk, home library, or reading nook, or as a special guest at your next book club meeting. It'll be hard for Jane Austen fans to resist the wonderful stuff in this collection. Through the end of March, enter SUKOS20 at the check-out for a 20% discount on all GoneReading purchases!

I love the Valentine! I don't talk about my blog much anymore because I can tell it bores other people to tears.

I think my husband tunes me out when I go on and on about my blog, The Girl, too! lol
ReplyDeleteI have the JA action figure in green, but the pink is so cute!
I get the same response when I talk about my blog, my husband doesn't even read it. He's not even sure how to find it! No one else wants to hear about my books either, which is why I started the blog in the first place. Except bookclub, that is. Glad to know I'm not alone.
ReplyDeleteI love that Jane Austen figurine. I never saw those before but they are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThat card is too precious Susan. Your husband sounds like he knows you very well. LOL

ReplyDeleteWhat a brilliant card - I love it!
ReplyDeleteJust one simple thing: I WANT THAT JANE AUSTEN ACTION FIGURE! OR IT WILL HAUNT ME, I KNOW! No, you already have too much knick knacks, Klein, calm down, CALM DOWN! Oh Susan, why did you have to show me that? I'm desperately trying to save money!! :(
ReplyDeleteHaha! Thanks for your comment, Louisa! I think I will need to purchase a Jane Austen action figure for my computer desk. She will be my muse. :)
