Bookish Gifts for a Cause!

I honestly didn't know about Brad Wirz or Gone Reading until he contacted me by e-mail, seeking a mention of their products on the blog, and then I realized what I'd been missing out on!

Gone Reading International LLC is a philanthropic initiative that combines donating 100 % of their after tax profits to charities such as funding for libraries, donating to projects such as Read Global and Ethiopia Reads and seeks to "spread the magic of reading". They have an amazing array of book-related products to satisfy your book-loving soul, so that you're treating yourself on amazing stuff while at the same time doing something for a greater cause.

Gone Reading doesn't sell the books, they sell the idea of reading.
They have a great range of products ranging from book lights to bookmarks to bookplates to T-shirts and journals- everything especially catering to your bookish needs.
To show you what I'm talking about, here's a few of their products you can buy from the site Gone Reading

and there's a lot more! 
I know I'm going to go get stuff from Gone Reading as soon as I can afford some bookish goodness- what about you?!

    Service is the very purpose of life. It is the rent we pay for living on the planet.

Do we really need a preface? Anyway, Feature and Follow is by Paranjunkee and Alison Can Read and is all about blog love. Q: Best Cover? What is the best cover of a book that you’ve read and didn’t like? A: Oh, easy peasy. Masque of Red Death by Bethany Griffin. I loved the cover, but I didn't like the book. I couldn't connect with any of the characters, and finally just abandoned it somewhere near the end. I don't even want to know how it ended, or if there is a new book in the series. It wasn't sucky writing or a sucky plot, it just completely failed to make any kind of impact on me. What are your picks? Leave your links, let's share some follower love :)

Ah, been a while since I did one of these. Anyway, as you all know, Feature and Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read , and is all about spreading some blogosphere love. The question for this week is: Q. Have You Ever Bought a Book Because of a Bad Review? A: Yes, I bought the Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare after one of my good friends read the book and trashed it so much that I just HAD to read it. Of course, her being a Harry Potter fan and fan-fiction writer was the main problem here: she had heard about the whole plagiarism fiasco and we had both read Cassandra's HP fanfic- the Draco Trilogy- and she thought the Mortal Instruments was basically a recycling of DT. Anyway, I read the book and sort of liked it: it was mindless fun if you ignored all the glamour-people and HP comparisons and glitter fizz. I liked Magnus Bane, at least. Leave your FF links :) Happy Follow Friday!

    So it's my very first Follow Friday blog-hop. Yaayy.  Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read , and this week's question is.....          Q: Which book genre do you avoid at all costs and why?   A. This one's easy.  Historical romance.  Give me anything with princes, princesses, marquises, swooning heroines, men in breeches, stories about evil twins and lost princes and inheritances and dowries...and I'll faint. But not before I barf.      Anything where women don't wear jeans or, in fact, anything above the knee, cannot stand up for themselves against abusive males (or do stand up and is branded a rebel, a wild-cat to be TAMED. UGH) and one look from a male melts off her kneecaps is a no-no for me. Put in castles and old English and nasty, unfleeable arranged marriages and I am dead. Bear in mind that I'm talking about those pink-and-yellow jacketed...
