The period between selling a book and holding that book in your hands can be eerily quiet. But every now and then a book blogger posts something that makes you think, Eek, this is really happening. I had two Eek moments today. First, on My Shelf Confessions, A Reunion of Ghosts was April’s Waiting On Wednesday* selection. Then, on Pop Goes the Reader, in a post entitled Do Judge a Book by Its Cover, Jen, a woman of discerning taste (she likes Colin Firth and Mad Men; case closed) sends love to the art gracing my jacket. Thanks to both of them for the lovely shout outs.

*think “Throwback Thursday” or “Meatless Monday”
