Well, I have a review to put up (which will be done separately) and I wanted to tell you the poll results. Both A Death in the Family and Godforsaken received two votes. I tried to find A Death in the Family and couldn't. I must have 'put it in a safe place'. And I tried to start Godforsaken this morning and just couldn't get into it. So, that's a bit disappointing. The only book that didn't get a vote was The Last Prince of Ireland. I started it this afternoon. I quickly fell asleep, but only because I was up very early. I'm sure it'll be good, I love the author.
I have a survey that I filled out to share with you all. Let me know if you do it as well, I'll come by and check it out!!
Hardback, trade paperback or mass market paperback?
Mass market paperback if possible.
Barnes and Noble. I love my BN!!
Bookmarks. Always! I never dog-ear
Amazon or brick-and-mortar?
Amazon, cause I don't know what brick and mortar is. But BN online is better.
Alphabetize by author. But that's a pipe dream. Usually random
Sell back to the UBS if possible, if not donate to library.
Keep.
I usually start with the dust jacket, but end up removing it.
Novel. I've never been able to get into short stories much.
Never read either.
Stop reading when tired or at chapter breaks?
I usually try to stop reading at a chapter break, but end up just quitting when I can't keep my eyes open anymore.
It was a dark and stormy night
Buy or borrow?
Used to be a buy girl, now I borrow from the library.
All of the above!

Depends. Is it a series? If so, cliffhanger. If not, tidy ending.
