Photo Friday: Florida!

I know I've been MIA this week. I'm just returning from Florida, where I visited my mom on vacation and also, um, tried to finish my book that's due in 10 days. Eek!Anyway, here are some shots! The beach in the morning: The book I totally enjoyed by the pool -- Sean Griswald's Head by Lindsey Leavitt (so adorable). An airboat ride involved crazy moss-covered trees and lovely lilypads! And the sunset last night. Sigh. Back to reality... Happy Friday!

Oops! Winner!

Sorry I missed Win-It Wednesday yesterday! The winner of Michael Northrop's Trapped is... LiLi! Send me your address, L.I'm not sure if LiLi's living in Florida will make the book seem more like a fantasy novel than a contemporary one, but I sure wish I were in the Sunshine State. (And I'm going there next week--yay!) And, that said, I'm buried under work! Book stuff! So Win-It Wednesday is on pause until next week. Besides, it's Thursday anyway and I like the "W" thing of Win-It Wednesday so it just wouldn't work today. I'm justifying. Side note: Don't you love those old-timey post cards? Divine. PS-If you're in a win-it mood and I've disappointed, I direct you to readergirlz, where Megan Whalen Turner is giving away *twenty* copies of her awesome book The Thief. Go, go!
