 Hello Fellow Hoppers and Follow Friday bloggers. I'm in the midst of a special X-mas Celebration! so be sure to Scroll down and check out all the giveaways I have, also I have a special interview today with Rachel Of parajunkee.com  the Follow Friday hostess! Rachel is also a wonderful  graphic artist. She designed my wonderful blog header and my buttons. I highly recommend her for your blog updates:)

Do you like to read Holiday Themed books? If so are there any you re-read every year?

Mainly children's books. Brings back memories. There is of course The Grinch, but there is also a local favorite, which is the Cajun Night before Christmas that we like to read and make a big production.

 

What are some of your favorite holiday traditions?

The food. Boy does my family know how to cook, probably why I could use to lose a few pounds. Between Thanksgiving and New Years we have party after party, birthdays (3 in November and 3 in December) and holiday parties, usually one or two a weekend.

I know you love books :) what other types of gifts do you like to receive?

Electronics. I'm a total gadget geek. I like anything that does something fun or useful. iPods, Kindles, Computers, robots that clean my floors, I love anything electronic.

What book or books would you like to receive this year?

I have to narrow it down to just one? Well actually, what I've been asking my family for since Katrina has been the Harry Potter Series. I had first editions of the entire series, in fact I had just finished the final book before Katrina hit and lost them all when my house went under. I've been dying to replace that set out of all the books I lost. That would be a perfect book gift, but I know it would be pricey.

Thanks so much ! Now for the blogger hop:

This week Crazy for books had this to ask:

Have you ever gotten a book that was really hyped up and been disappointed in it? How did you do your review?

This happened to me with the book: And Falling Fly, I loved the cover and had heard amazing things about it. It was also the most expensive e-book I ever bought $12.99, I really wanted to like the book but I struggle with it. I decided to give my honest feelings and gave the book 2 stars >

Parajunkee's site had this question: What else do you like to do besides reading/reviewing books as a hobby?

I'd have to say Yoga even though I do it for exercise as well. I'm also addicted to IPhone apps like Angry Birds :)
