I am not much of a costume person. We don't celebrate Halloween. However, if ever I do, I will dress up like Casper!

Jennifer asks “Many of us primarily read one genre of books, with others sprinkled in. If authors stopped writing that genre, what genre would you start reading? Or would you give up reading completely if you couldn’t read that genre anymore?

Jennifer asks us, “How/Where do you get your books? Do you buy them or go to the library? Is there a certain website you use like paperbackswap?. ”
I buy most of the time. I also get review copies and/or win from giveaways. Lately, I have not been receiving any review copies at all. One reason is I am selective about genres!!
ParaJunkee asks as to tell her, " What do I do when I are not reading?"
I write poetry, do crossword puzzle, read blogs and do nothing!

Friday Find:
Chosen by Paula Bradley: (Book Description from Amazon)
Shy and introverted Mariah Carpenter has concealed a hidden talent from childhood that, according to her mother, would brand her a freak. Now a fateful encounter has caused her secret skill—an extraordinary psychic ability—to become greatly enhanced. Suddenly, she has a purpose for her gift, as her vision gives her the ability to find kidnapped children telepathically. But is this a blessing or a curse? When Mariah’s fourth finding is filmed by the FBI and the recording is stolen and sold to a broadcast journalist, Mariah’s worst nightmare becomes a reality. She is acclaimed worldwide as a saint and messenger from God—and vilified as the Antichrist whose powers must be quelled. Meanwhile, another government agency has its own covert agenda for Mariah…. In the midst of all of this, Mariah has a series of horrifying nightmares, culminating in the discovery of an ingenious serial killer, one who somehow prevents Mariah from finding out who and where he is. Locating this murderer before he kills again becomes Mariah’s obsession, one that threatens to consume her––and could even destroy her.
