Clock Rewinders on a Book Binge is where Tara @ 25 Hour Books and Amanda @ On a Book Bender shamelessly plug each other, share the fantastic posts, giveaways, or whatever else we’ve found and loved by other awesome bloggers (or authors!) during the week, and talk about the books we plan on reading in the coming week.

I wonder what your announcement is?! I hate waiting too lol. I’m participating in the Harry Potter read along. I want to watch Veronica Mars, but idk how. Online? I’ll have to check that post out. Hope you find something that’ll get you back in the mood to read.
I’ll be announcing soon! I’m EXCITED 😀
I know the first two seasons of Veronica Mars are available (legally) on the WB website, though there you get some ads. I got them from my local library – there wasn’t that much wait surprisingly!
I have weeks like this … OR where I have a ton of books on the go, but don’t actually finish anything. I think it’s the weather. The spring weather ALWAYS makes me want to play the piano and write songs. It’s a struggle to get me to sit and read a book!
YAY for news!!!!
I think mine is just because I have TOO MUCH to do, so I don’t tend to let myself read, even though I should at least a little bit. Ah well.
Thanks so much for mentioning my post! And for spreading the word about the new dates set for bloggiesta – I always seem to miss it! So I’m going to try to be proactive this time 😀
I hate waiting for things too, so I hope your announcement is awesome and it’s everything you’re wanting! 😀
