I will never get tired of books

I know more and more people are getting into e-readers but I don't think that I will ever convert. I love the feel of a paperback or hardcover book. I have heard that e-readers are supposed to be easy on the eyes, but I just don't believe this. Maybe in time I will convert, but for now, my book shelves are getting fuller and fuller!

Here are a couple of books that I recently ordered:

Because Betty is beautiful and bold!

This was just recommended by the website and it intrigued me. And I remember when Gianni was shot, I was just a kid, but that story stuck with me.

Dominick Dunne is one of my favourite writers and I kept my subscription to Vanity Fair up for years just to read his column!

Because he wrote Marley and Me and a book has never hit home like that one ever before <3

I bought the book "Marley and Me" in an airport before a flight. I took it into a restuarant with me and read the back cover while I was waiting for my meal to arrive. For any of you who have yet to read this book, if your a dog lover and you have lost a dog in your lifetime, the back cover alone brought tears to my eyes. I cried through the last half of the novel and the movie. I'm not one to sob during books or movies but "Marley and Me" is something special.

Betty White is 90 and fabulous!!!

I don't know about you but I cannot believe that Betty White is 90! She was born in 1922! I find this absolutely amazing! 

A young Betty White - ever a babe!

She is such a star! 

One of my favourite shows to watch with my grandmother when I was younger <3 

I have to read this book! 

I really think that female comedians like Betty White paved the way for women like Chelsea Handler and Tina Fey. Age hasn't slowed her down at all and her comedy just keeps getting better and better. I really hope she's around for years and years to come.

A video you might get a laugh out of.... 


Betty White on being tough:

“Why do people say "grow some balls"? Balls are weak and sensitive. If you wanna be tough, grow a vagina. Those things can take a pounding”
