Books 1 of 7

I am doing a book "posting" on Facebook.
I feel so sad to have abandoned by blog and posting more on Facebook and Twitter.
So the least I can do is share this 7-day challenge of posting 7 books!
here goes Book 1:

Day 1 of my 7-day book challenge: Rayuela (Hopscotch) is a novel by Argentine writer Julio Cortázar. I was nominated by Donna Rauch to share 7 of my favorite books, no explanation. Each day post a book cover and nominate a fellow book lover to participate (if they want!). I accept that nomination and nominate Hermione Betts Cloney #books

San Diego Festival of Books

The 1st SD Festival of Books was a little great event! Lots of authors, local independent bookstores and I scored these lovely books! I wish I had more time to talk to local authors. But I already volunteered for Mercy for Animals 4 hours before I got to look around.

But I did meet Drew Andrews at the Verbatim booth. He signed his first novel (horror short tales) for me, I was gone by the time I read on his book that he is a local musician who has played with The Album Leaf and other bands.

The Vegan recipes books with Morrissey and Nick Cave are funny, recipes are based on song titles, my favorite is Moz arguing with the Cookie Monster over a vegan cookie :D

Can't wait to read David Lynch's Catching the Big Fish on working on film projects.

The James Patterson was for my neighbor Mike
.

I highly recommend you to visit Verbatim books in North Park!

Also I volunteered with Mercy for Animals! We did Paid-Per-View video viewing.
Where we pay people $1 to watch a video on Factory Farming and how Animals suffer and are killed for food :( I do hope more people become vegan after watching the video, many are shocked!

It was a great Saturday in San Diego!
