I used to come over an hour to work to the big city lol. This was maybe 2002 or so. I didn't have a cell phone at the time as they were still fairly expensive at the time. Anyway, I made it about 3/4 of the way there and my car broke down on the highway. I didn't know what the hell to do. No-one was doing to offer help. Eventually I actually started to walk a bit down the highway. An older man in a fairly nice car pulled over and asked if I needed help. I explained I had no idea what was wrong with my car and how I was surely going to be late for work. We talked and discovered he also worked downtown and was headed that way. At first I was a little freaked out but for whatever reason I felt safe taking a ride with him. Well he drove right to the front door of my office building and we had a nice chat on the way there. I honestly don't remember the details but I'm thinking maybe there was some discussion about who he was or what he did that comforted me about the safety issue. I mean even thinking about it now I think wtf was I thinking but clearly he didn't kill me lol THANKS
This book would be great. Thanks for the contest :)
The Help! I've not read the book yet, but I did see the movie. I quite liked it! I actually liked it a lot more than I thought I would, I had no interest in it whatsoever but then was able to see it for free on a cruise. I loved it, and want to read the book since the books are always better than the movies!
How many books do you plan to read?
52! Right on the nose!
Have you completed the 52 Book Challenge before?
No. haha. This past year I've read 10 books. That's it. More internet bullcrap then reading. THat's going to change this next year!
What will be your first book of 2016?
[Acoustic Shadows by Patrick Kendrick] (http://www.amazon.com/Acoustic-Shadows-Patrick-Kendrick-ebook/dp/B00TO3RIM2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1451407500&sr=8-1) I have a problem with buying books and not reading them. I guess I bought this in October but I don't remember it. I'm going to try to clear out my not read list before buying anything new.
Anything else you want to ask or share!
I'm going to do four week themes! So far I have the first as thrillers! I have a list at home (i'm at work, naturally lol) Should make it more fun, me thinks.
Here's my goodreads profile though! I love new people :)
Yay! Good job on you for caring enough to keep at it for six months until he was happy!
Cheesy romance novels are perfect for summer.
Why won't you move Mr.Bubbles?
Could it be The Last Time I Was Me, by Cathy Lamb?
>When Jeanne Stewart stops at The Opera Man's Cafe in Weltana, Oregon, to eat pancakes for the first time in twelve years, she has no idea she's also about to order up a whole new future. It's been barely a week since she succumbed to a spectacularly public nervous breakdown in front of hundreds of the nation's most important advertising and PR people. Jeanne certainly had her reasons - her mother's recent death, the discovery that her boyfriend had been sleeping with a dozen other women, and the assault charges that resulted when Jeanne retaliated in a creative way against him, involving condoms and peanut oil.Now, en route to her brother's house in Portland, Jeanne impulsively decides to spend some time in picturesque Weltana. Staying at a B&B run by the eccentric, endearing Rosvita, she meets a circle of quirky new friends at her court-ordered Anger Management classes. Like Jeanne, all of them are trying to become better, braver versions of themselves. Yet the most surprising discoveries are still to come - a good man who steadily makes his way into her heart and a dilapidated house that with love and care might be transformed into something wholly her own, just like the new life she is slowly building, piece by piece.

If I win, I'd like a gift card, is that okay? If not, this off my e-books list.
Thank you for the contest!
Stick 'em Up!
If you're in the mood for lighthearted romances, check out Books With Benefits for all sorts of romance reviews. Seven Wicked Nights is only $0.99 right now for Amazon Kindle. If you use iBooks, selected Tessa Dare novels (also sexy historical romances) are on sale right now from $1.99. /r/suggestmeabook may also be a good place to ask :-)
Edited to add: First book of Sisters in Love (contemporary romance) now free on Kindle!
This is not for me but for my lovely wife. She loves reading but hates carrying around books. So she reads the majority of her books on her tiny iPhone screen and I always feel sorry for her. She squints and struggles to read when she could be comfy reading on a tablet.
Now, why wouldn't I just buy her one? It's because I'm funemployed for the summer, so we have to save up cash. Otherwise I'd love to help her out.
My Favorite Book!
This is actually pretty hard. I'm obsessing over ASOIAF (Game of Thrones) lately, and highly recommend it.
But my favorite book is A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce. It's much more accessible that his other works and is simply beautiful at times.
Close seconds are Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut and A Clockwork Orange. If you haven't been reading Vonnegut you should start ASAP. Brilliant writer.
I only have a couple books on my wishlist because I kind of impulse buy them as I finish others, but I've wanted to read this for a while, despite terrible reviews, out of sheer loyalty.
Debbie Reese's blog is focused on children's literature, but she has a long list here of Native writers and illustrators on Twitter. Personally, I've enjoyed books by Daniel Heath Justice and Rebecca Roanhorse. There's also a nice short story collection called Walking the Clouds (though if you get bogged down in the first section about non-linear narratives, I suggest skipping ahead to the other stories, which are more straightforward).
On my to-read list: Indigenous Literatures from Micronesia, Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice, The Marrow Thieves by Cherie Dimaline, The Interrogation of Ashala Wolf by Ambelin Kwaymullina.
I've found them on Amazon (Books 1, 2, and 3,) but I get this notification on the right side that its not available in my country. Like I said, any leads for getting it in the US would be super helpful.
Here are all the local Amazon links I could find:

This is interesting to me. I use the library a lot and would generally prefer to purchase an e-book over a physical book if I have to make the choice; I try to avoid cluttering my place with loads of one and done books.
On the other hand, this seems like a book that many people will want to take a crack at reading--good or bad. I guess for the price difference, $20.94 - $19.99 = $0.95, I guess I'll just get the physical book. I derive some pleasure from sharing books with other people, so I guess that would make up the price difference.
More interesting though, is, you know, why that price point? That's really high. I'm sure she got an enormous advance and all, but yikes.
I haven't read it yet but there is a new novel out called The Dry by Jane Harper:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dry-Novel-Jane-Harper-ebook/dp/B01BSN15F6.
It's set in a small rural town in Australia but It looks like it could be the right vibe you're looking for.
