The subject for today is kindness:

Kindness is in our power, even when fondness is not.
~Samuel Johnson

Kindness, like a boomerang, always returns.
~Author Unknown

Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.
~Plato

~From The Quote Garden.

Here’s the book video for Erica Ridley’s debut novel, Too Wicked To Kiss:

*The release date for Too Wicked To Kiss is March 2, 2010.

The Emmys are this Sunday night! Neil Patrick Harris is hosting, which I think is awesome since he did a fantastic job hosting the Tonys. To add even more television goodness on top of that, a slew of season and series premieres are debuting next week.

Have a great weekend, everyone.

I’ve just started reading Surrender of a Siren by Tessa Dare and I’m loving it so far.

Here are a few more of my favorite reads this summer:

• A Hint of Wicked by Jennifer Haymore
• To Taste Temptation by Elizabeth Hoyt
• Hunt Her Down by Roxanne St. Claire
• The Duke of Shadows by Meredith Duran
• Dark Needs at Night’s Edge by Kresley Cole
• Private Arrangements by Sherry Thomas

What are some of your favorite reads of the summer?

Revisions abound
Each keystroke brings me closer
To the finish line

I *heart* iced tea, so when I saw this quiz, I couldn’t resist.

You Are Mint Iced Tea

You are philosophical and balanced. You try to remain cool and collected. You value peace and quiet. You’ve had a lot of drama go down.. enough to last you a lifetime. You have come to a point in your life where you can accept things as they are. You don’t get worked up about what you can’t change. You like nothing more than a simple summer afternoon when you don’t have a care in the world.

Raising a cyber toast to Kristen Painter, Louisa Edwards, and MJ Fredrick. Today is the release day for Kristen’s book All Fired Up, Louisa’s book Can’ t Stand the Heat, and MJ’s book Beneath The Surface!

Salut, ladies!
