Category: Armchair BEA 2011

Today is the official start to Armchair BEA. Todays topic question is: Who are you, and how do you Armchair?

My name is Cindy. I am a SAHM (stay at home mom). I have a eight year old son who is currently finishing up grade two. He keeps me busy as he is active(from curling in the winter to swimming in the summer. This winter he wants to play hockey). He is like me and has a love of books. He currently reads in two languages English and French. Much better then me I have to say who can only read in English.

I am a Canadian blogger living in Quebec. I am in the burbs of Montreal. I love that I am literally 20 minutes or so from down town Montreal. Growing up I use to live on the east coast in New Brunswick. It was a small nothern town. The complete opposite of here.

As you might noticed my reading is all over the place. I love reading a wide varitey of genres. I dabble in middle grade, young adult, and adult fiction. Personally for me I will read anything that peaks my interest no matter what genre it is. I think that is because growing up I didn’t have all that is out there now. I think the most risque was Judy Blume and VC Andrews. I quality of the books has certainly changed over the years.

This week I am excited about discovering many new bloggers and finding out what else Armchair BEA has planned as well as hopefully hearing how the real BEA is going.

So if you are a new reader please leave a comment and say hi. If you add me to your followers let me know so that I can return the favor.

I have to admit even though I brought my camera with me I didn’t take a lot of pictures but I thought I would share this one taken at BEA with Ethan Zahn from Survivor. He had two children soccer books out at BEA.

(as you can tell the humidity was terrible for my hair)

Have a great day everyone and enjoy Armchair BEA.

I just have to say I find it so hard to believe that is already time for BEA. Alot of the bloggers I know and follow are practically all descending into New York City to prepare for BEA this week.

I won’t be attending BEA this but I didn’t want to be excluded from the events so I signed up to take part for Armchair BEA. Its not to late to check them out if you haven’t already.

There is so many great bloggers who I know that are taking part and a whole bunch of others that I am looking forward to discovering this week.

I have a bunch of BEA post scheduled to post this upcoming week that are all part of Armchair BEA and I might work on a showcase post from last year’s BEA.

I apologize in advance if you happen to get alot of post in your feed readers because I have my regular stuff scheduled to post as well as the Armchair BEA.

If you are taking part please leave me a comment so I can check out your posts.
