Here’s more from my never ending TBR collection. Happy weekend all!
The House of a Million Pets
by Ann Hodgman
(hope this won’t give me any hints on getting more pets for my house)
Ann Hodgman’s basement is home to three guinea pigs, a cage full of birds, a big gray rabbit, a prairie dog, a bulbul (look it up), two little rabbits, a hamster, and twenty-six pygmy mice. And that’s just the basement.Would your parents ever let you have that many pets at once?
If Ann Hodgman were your parents, she’d let you.
Here is the true story of what it’s like to live in her barnyard—er, house—with more animals than you’ll be able to keep track of. Any kid (or adult) who has ever owned or wanted a pet will love these furry, feathered, slimy, and scaly stories.
Porn For Women
by Cambridge Women’s Pornography Cooperative
Prepare to enter a fantasy world. A world where clothes get folded just so, delicious dinners await, and flatulence is just not that funny. Give the fairer sex what they really want beautiful PG photos of hunky men cooking, listening, asking for directions, accompanied by steamy captions: “I love a clean house!” or “As long as I have two legs to walk on, you’ll never take out the trash.” Now this is porn that will leave women begging for more!

It truly is a never ending discovery process for me as of late. I’ve recently noticed my goodreads.com TBR list is now at 300 and there is no end in sight, but it’s so much fun finding new books to read, I can’t help myself!
Here’s some from this past week:
Listening in: A Novel of Therapy and Real Life – Kevin Chandler
When do Fish sleep?: And Other Imponderables of Everyday Life – David Feldman

I discovered a few new book related memes thanks to MizB’s blog, Should be Reading
This first meme is Friday Finds, and asks participants what great books did you hear about/discover this week.
Here are some of my TBR finds for this week:
The Faggiest Vampire by Carlton Mellick III
Dogs I Have Met: And the People They Found by Ken Foster
I discovered The Faggiest Vampire from a TBR list displayed on a friend’s list at GoodReads. Now with the other book, I decided to look up Ken Foster for more of his books since I enjoyed reading his other book, The Dogs Who Found Me: What I’ve Learned From Pet Who Were Left Behind
Happy Finding to all!
