Stacking the Shelves (699) BLOGO-BIRTHDAY EDITION + #Giveaway This is the 699th Stacking the Shelves post here at Reading Reality, and tomorrow is my 69th birthday. Who says there are no such thing as coincidences? Today is the penultimate, meaning next-to-the-last, day of Reading Reality's 15th Blogo-Birthday Celebration Week. Today is also Reading Reality's official blogoversary, as the first post on what was then "Escape Reality, Read Fiction", was posted on April 4, 2011…

I’m also pleased beyond imagining that the stories - at least so far and we’ll certainly see - are still just as good a decade later.

Fifteenth Annual Blogo-Birthday Celebration Week and GIVEAWAY! Today marks the start of Reading Reality's FIFTEENTH Blogo-Birthday Celebration Week. When I looked ahead this time last year, I realized that this year's celebration would be weird as both Reading Reality's official blogoversary, April 4, and my own birthday, April 5, both fell on a weekend. This time last year, I thought I'd be conducting the Celebration Week BEFORE the official dates.

Stacking the Shelves (647) + Giveaway This particular Stacking the Shelves post has a lot of stuff stacked on its shelves today. Because today is not only my birthday, it's also the final day in this year's Blogo-Birthday Celebration Week, making this a hobbit birthday in that I give presents instead receiving them. As part of my birthday, I've also set up a Birthday Fundraiser on Facebook to Planned Pethood…

Blogo-Birthday Early Birthday Celebration and #Giveaway! Today is actually the actual 14th blogoversary for Reading Reality. Tomorrow is my birthday. Having the actual dates partially fall over the weekend has made things weird as far as posting the Celebration Week is concerned. (Next year will be crazier as both days are over a weekend. The celebration will be AFTER. Nevertheless, today is a day worth celebrating here at Chez Reading Reality as the whole thing began on April 4, 2011 and is still growing strong even though blogs are not nearly the big noise that they used to be.

A- #BookReview: The Three Locks by Bonnie MacBird + Giveaway! My Review: I lost count of the total number of locks in this story early on, but I’m absolutely certain there were considerably more than three such items, particularly as more than one escape artist festooned himself with several at a time. Including Sherlock Holmes. But the first lock in this story is certainly the most poignant, not because it’s a trick lock - although it absolutely is - but because the key to it is locked in Dr.

A+ #BookReview: Direct Descendant by Tanya Huff + Giveaway! My Review: Lake Argen is NOT Toronto - in spite of what the blurb says. In fact, that’s kind of the point of the place, that it is DEFINITELY NOT Toronto. Because what happens there, and how it happens, and why it happens, wouldn’t be remotely possible in a big city like Toronto. So that’s precisely where Lake Argen is - remote from Toronto - or pretty much anywhere else.

Fourteenth Annual Blogo-Birthday Celebration Week and Giveaway! This year's OMG Fourteenth Blogo-Birthday Week Celebration technically began with yesterday's Sunday Post. The actual, technical blogoversary is this Friday, April 4, with my own birthday the following day, April 5, which is when the final giveaway will be posted. Reading Reality began on April 4, 2011, under the name "Escape Reality, Read Fiction", which is also the reason the ratings are "Escape Ratings" and "Reality Ratings".
