The Smell of Ink/Lukten av Trykksverte

It's Friday, which means it's time for a new Book Blogger Hop post, thanks to  Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer . The question of the week was "What's your immediate feeling when entering a bookstore, as compared to how you feel when entering a department store?". Book Blogger Hop Those who knows me well enough knows that for me, bookstores are among my happy places. One of my favourite bookstores happen to be a secondhand bookstore called Løvås and is situated in Stavanger. It's almost like being on a treasure hunt and I ALWAYS find something to buy. By the way, here's a few Twitter posts that sums up how I feel about bookstores in general. I can never leave a #bookstore without buying a #book . I #read four or five at a time. #MireilleGuiliano #bookstores #candyshop #readingart pic.twitter.com/vgo35WflFP — Paperbacks Plus (@Paperbacks_Plus) September 9, 2017 Totally me! #books #reading #bookstore #l...

An Unconventional Mr. Peadlebody by D.L. Gardner Genre: Paranormal Humor  Rockford Peadlebody dies in a train wreck while traveling with his family, (a rather dysfunctional lot of half-blood vampires) after a flood in Mississippi washes their home away. Once his brother Gerald, his wife Ginger, and son Raymond reach grandpa's estate in Ohio, they are surprised by the news that grandaddy Benjamin Peadlebody has also died. They are now heirs to the infamous Peadlebody manor and all its peculiarities, including the butler, a reserved, tattooed, muscle-man named Richard Cottlebone,  It seems fishy to Gerald that two untimely deaths in the family happened within a week. Yes, Rockford's demise was of his own doing, but Benjamin's? Perhaps the butler, knows more than he's letting on? To prove himself worthy, since he failed to live up to old Benjamin's standards when he was alive, Gerald goes about to unravel the thread of Papa's death...

From the moment he spies her, Jonathan is smitten. But romance is impossible. Mrs. Paley is a respectable woman, and he himself is outside of society, an orphan, an ex-thi...
