Book Blog Hop and Follow Friday (9-2-2011)

Happy September! With the end of summer just days away, it's sad to realize how quickly time flies! Soon it will be Halloween, then Thanksgiving, then Christmas, then 2012. This year just flew by (thank goodness)! If you are hopping on through, then welcome to my blog! Go ahead, look around, and see what I'm all about here! If you are an old follower, then welcome back! I mentioned last week that I would be hosting my very first giveaway, and I will have that information posted Tuesday (unfortunately, after I arrived back from Las Vegas, I was thrown back into work and haven't had much time to think about the giveaway). So, onto the fun!

Jen at Crazy for Books asks: “What are you most looking forward to this fall/autumn season – A particular book release? Halloween? The leaves changing color? Cooler temperatures? A vacation? (If your next season is other than fall/autumn, tell us about it and what you are most looking forward to in your part of the world!)”

Great question! I am looking forward to the beautiful fall weather ... those sunny days where it's a bit cooler and the leaves look goregous! Also, my favorite thing in the whole wide world ... FOOTBALL!!!! I love this sport and can never get enough. My team is the Steelers (I'm a Pittsburgh girl!), so I'm definitely hoping that we can make it back to the Super Bowl and win this year!

Parajunkee asks: 

Q. If you could change the ending of any book (or series), which book would you choose? Why and to what?

Oh my, this is going to be difficult. There are so many books that I read where I think that if the author had changed this one thing about the ending, it would be a fantastic book. I'm going to look back on recently read books for my answer this week and say Summer in the South by Cathy Holton (review). I just felt like the ending of this book could have been done a bit better, with Ava not being a stereotypical female and winding up with a man at the end of the story. Also, since the house seems haunted, I think it would have been great if there had been a little more suspense added into the story.

So, what are you looking forward to this fall? What ending of a book would you change? Let me know! And I hope that everyone has a wonderful and safe end of summer this weekend!
