The Book Cove

When it comes to site advertising I have a simple thought - to each their own. Getting more personal now , I really dislike  going to sites where there are constant pop-ups, talking promo videos, and annoying non-stop flashing on side bars . Hence the reason The Book Cove does not have any page advertisements. (I can not understand how certain sites do so well monetarily when the sites have irrelevant pop-ups covering the screen and cluttered advertising...but I digress. That's a personal rant I will not subject anyone to ;-) ) Furthermore, The Book Cove is what would be considered (still) a new site. We are rapidly gaining exposure to booksters around the world, however, we are not the million-traffic-hitter that other more prominent sites are (a reason why $$ advertisements are useless to us). And that's okay! This site was not started with the intention to generate an income. Again, to each their own. In fact, I admire those who are able to make their blog(s) profitabl...

She starts to feel paranoid, not know who is really whom. Her discovery of Howard Sun’s veiled interest is not without a certain irritated and baffled series of exchanges. Read the footnotes to get an insight into what I was thinking as I wrote this piece! Excerpt: Then came the escalating gifts—two Hershey’s Kisses on her desk one morning that he denied leaving her though she had watched him place them there, the unexpected daffodils, memos he wrote to reduce her workload, that mix CD that floored her since it was full of the sort of well-spoken love songs she couldn’t even imagine him listening to—and just the other day, he had invited her to a football game. “I have two tickets,” he said. “Want one?” “To go to...
