--- Unknown

EDITOR RANDOM FUN ACTIVITY

Take out sometime this coming week and perhaps the next, to do something really fun and exciting - READ. Yes, this week's fun activity is to read a book, whether fiction or non-fiction. This is your opportunity to open that book you've been wanting to read for a while now, but haven't quite found the time or place to do so. Well, this is your lucky day (or time). Funny, my article for this week is precisely about how and why reading is essential for everyone. So when you check out the article, do pick at least one book from the list that i have tagged as my 'top 10 fiction' favorites, and and take your sweet time reading it. Let this be at least one of the first accomplishments that you do in the new year, i.e., finishing up a book. So do it. This week.

Mystery Books Newsletter from BellaOnline.com

Hi Everyone,

Hope your holiday season has been as enjoyable as ours. We've enjoyed family and friends, but not so much the snow and cold here in Michigan. Hope it's warmer where you are!

Endangered is the third in the zoo mystery series by Ann Littlewood, and is an exciting read. We also wrote an article about the fairly new term "Geezer Lit" and how the genre is much older than the term implies. Hope you enjoy a look back at all the so-called geezers who have been out there solving fictional crimes.

Here are the latest articles from the Mystery Books site at BellaOnline.com.

Endangered Review
When zoo keeper Iris Oakley is called out to a remote Washington State farm after a drug bust, little does she know the danger she puts her family and friends in after the rescue of exotic animals.

http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art179084.asp/zzz


Geezer Lit is Older Than You Think
The term geezer-lit has become a popular new genre in recent years, but is it really new?

EDITOR RECOMMENDED BOOK

Tell Me Your Dreams, by Sidney Sheldon

This book is one of my favourites of all time. Now those who know me well are very much aware of my passion and obsession for all Sid Shel books; I am in awe of his writing techniques. This book is an intriguing story about three beautiful women Ashley, Toni and Alette. Ashley is the main character, who is convinced that she is being seriously stalked. Toni and Alette are Ashley's co-workers, Toni a beautiful British woman, and Alette, a romantic who just moved from Rome.
I can't say any further without revealing some spoilers, but i'll say if you do love some intrigue and mystery, romance and drama, this is one book that you should pick up. If you've read other Sid Shel books and haven't read this one, you absolutely absolutely must!

Here are some reviews about the book on Google Play: http://books.google.ca/books?id=8z03WKzlC3MC

and on Amazon: http://www.amazon.ca/Tell-Your-Dreams-Sidney-Sheldon/dp/0446607207

Enjoy!

EDITOR RANDOM FUN ACTIVITY

Smile at 6-8 random strangers this week. Yes, strangers. Yes, randomly. It's another holiday season, and we have so so much to be thankful for and smile about. It may not seem so for some of us; we may be going some tough situations that seem gigantic and never-ending. But we're alive, we can read, we can breathe; however 'insignificant' these may seem, they are reasons enough for us to be thankful that we're still around to see another Christmas season. So let's make use of our lips, make someone else smile by smiling at them. Whether you're in an elevator, walking on the street, at a bar, a restaurant, on a streetcar/subway/metro, just smile at someone, and absolutely mean it. Let them see the genuineness in your eyes, and let their perplexed expression give you some satisfaction (*evil grin*). Do it. This week.

I thank you for visiting LiteraryFiction.bellaonline.com; please visit again for even more great content about Literary Fiction.

Have fun passing this message along to family and friends :)

Do enjoy the rest of your week!

The third book in the Lilly Hawkins mystery series by Nora McFarland has gained the author even more readers due to the fast-paced, fun stories coming from her keyboard. Here's the latest review from the Mystery Books site at BellaOnline.com.

Going to the Bad Review

QUOTE FOR THE WEEK

"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind."
--- William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

EDITOR RECOMMENDED BOOK

Okay so this time I'm actually recommending a book that I should read, not you! I'm recommending that I read 1984 by George Orwell. Believe it or not, I've never read the book! Shame I know, almost every literature fanatic has read and re-read that one, except me. So I will make out the time this week and next to read the book. If you haven't, you should join me too. I believe they have it on Google Play (if you have any android device) for $0.99:

https://play.google.com/store/books/details/George_Orwell_1984?id=Ku0wEGoXp9gC&feature=search_result#?t=W10.

and also at Amazon: http://www.amazon.ca/Nineteen-Eighty-Four-George-Orwell/dp/0141036141/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1354242428&sr=8-1

or, you could borrow it from your local library. Enjoy! I plan to :)

EDITOR RANDOM FUN ACTIVITY

Let's try on some more writing like last time. This time, instead of making a list of what you appreciate about a loved one, write five things about YOURSELF. Sometimes we go through situations in life that make us feel insecure, inadequate, silly, and even unintelligent. It's normal, and it's part of life, but it's also wise not to let ourselves be beaten down by these negative turn outs. So take the time to appreciate yourself this time. What do you like most about you? What do you think you and others admire about you? Your smile? Your aggressively protective mannerism? Your attention to details? Whatever it is, write it down, and take the time to read through. As you do, remember and hold on to the fact that nobody is perfect, we all have our bad sides, worst days, but we are all unique in our own ways (not to sound 'cliche' in any way). So let's do this. Within the next 5 days. Good luck!

Be it spouse, boy/girlfriend, sister, brother, bestfriend, daughter, son...whomever comes to mind as you read this, hold on to that name and don't change it. Tell them you appreciate them, and the 5 listed phrases should give them a nice picture of how much you do. Some might think this silly, but you'll be amazed at the difference your randomly touching gesture will make. Do it. Sometime within the next 5 days.
