I forgot it was Dewey time again! Love picking out read-a-thon books 🙂
I just remembered a few days ago and signed up. I’m so glad I didn’t miss it. Heading to the library later this week to pick out my books!
“boys from books you want to bang,” I’m still laughing. Sometimes there’s just no good way to say something.
I am blushing so much right now. I feel like if I understood commas better I wouldn’t have gotten myself into that mess of a phrase. oh well.
When all else fails, I use parentheses or dashes. I’m not saying that’s correct, just that I do it! Using commas around from books would have meant using semicolons where you currently have commas, and once a sentence gets into semicolon territory it just stops being lighthearted fun! : )
Haha! It’s definitely time for me to break out my copy of The Elements of Style. Thanks.
Still catching up on my blog reading since I returned from vacation. I see a lot of good links above!
Hope you had a great vacation! Thanks for commenting.
Okay. I looked at the literary boyfriends list and am probably in 100% agreement with her.
Haha! Thank ya, thank ya! Such lovely boys/men!
Thanks for the shout-out!
