Grammar Snufus by Karla Stover

Okay, here's the deal. When did people become "that" instead of "who?" I hear this on the radio on the TV ( and shouldn't news reporters know better )? and unless my memory is wrong, have even read it in places. Why? How hard is it to remember that people require a "who"? And here's another--myself instead of me. My boss did this all this time and it drove me crazy. Are we so afraid to  be in the spotlight that we have to say, "So-and-so and myself did such-and-so?"

The Secret

WOW- Waiting On Wednesday

Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine.
I never fail to discover great new books that have yet to be published, that have already been published and I missed or that are coming out this week or month. I love discovering new books and book bloggers have all the news on what to add to my endless and enormous TBR list!

Here's my pick this week!



Panic by Lauren Oliver
Release Date- March 4th 2014
Publisher- Harper Collins
Hardcover 416 pages
Goodreads Blurb-Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a dead-end town of 12,000 people in the middle of nowhere: because it was summer, and there was nothing else to do.

Heather never thought she would compete in Panic, a legendary game played by graduating seniors, where the stakes are high and the payoff is even higher. She’d never thought of herself as fearless, the kind of person who would fight to stand out. But when she finds something, and someone, to fight for, she will discover that she is braver than she ever thought.

Dodge has never been afraid of Panic. His secret will fuel him, and get him all the way through the game, he’s sure of it. But what he doesn't know is that he’s not the only one with a secret. Everyone has something to play for.

For Heather and Dodge, the game will bring new alliances, unexpected revelations, and the possibility of first love for each of them—and the knowledge that sometimes the very things we fear are those we need the most.

ALSO!!!! LAUREN OLIVER CAN BE SEEN AND HEARD ON EPIC READS READING THE FIRST THREE CHAPTERS OF PANIC- HERE AT EPIC READS

The Destruction of Port Royal by Katherine Pym

Buy Here ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~  Port Royal, Jamaica 1690 First, a little history of the town… Port Royal (changed in 1660 from Point Cagway) was a village in Jamaica, taken by the English in 1655.   The town had a natural deep harbor perfect for ships, but there was little to defend it. Houses dotted the landscape up the hills and down to the water, some with stilts in the sand, their houses standing in the tidal swells. A couple forts were built, but that was not enough to keep the Spanish at bay, so the inhabitants contacted the Brethren of the Coast, a pirate union of sorts, and invited them to settle there. Port Royal boomed. Soon 6,500 souls resided there. Ships in the harbor and a lively town with men known for their swashbuckling, rough ways were a deterrent for anyone thinking to come ashore and cause havoc. Port Royal After quake Before long Port Royal became a haven for pirates with brothels and lawlessness. Merchants bought and sold what the pirates dragged ashore, but th...
