Mini-Alex will have to do the honors.
ReplyDeleteDoes he have his own mini library? That would be pretty cool.
DeleteMine is in front of movies, that count? lol
ReplyDeleteMost certainly! We have a movie library also.
DeleteUh... Most of my books are digital. But I'll see if my husband can build me an interesting set of shelves to fill a head shot.
ReplyDeleteI am adapting quickly to digital. Now I only keep my faves on a shelf.
Delete(To save your hubby some work, you could snap a shot of you with your Kindle library!)
I've seen this bloghop advertised on quite a few blogs...
ReplyDeleteI've never tried a selfie never mind a shelfie... I'm just about getting into a little photography... trying to polish my non-existent photography skillz... LOL
I have a confession...I've tried to do the selfie and end up with a whole bunch of odd pictures of my eyeball. Not sure what I;m doing wrong.
DeleteSounds fun! It would be lovely following on twitter and seeing everyone's' selfies!
ReplyDeleteI have to figure out my twitter password. I keep forgetting to go there!
DeleteWeill enjoy it when it happens.
ReplyDeleteYes, it should be fun!
DeleteSounds like fun! Do I need to take a pic of my books in a bookstore or at home?
ReplyDeleteI'd say either...or both! I prefer the "no rules" rule of blogging.
DeleteSo much fun! If I was moved into my house with all my books out on a shelf, I would totally be playing along. Unfortunately everything is in storage until the 11th of September, and then I'm hosting a boatload of family on a week later until the end of the month, and then I've got a book release. I need a clone, please?
ReplyDeleteWe need to have a talk with that Alex about sharing the clone machine.
DeleteWhat a great idea. I'm going to be non-commital for now, so I don't have to flake like I did for your bloghop, Elizabeth. =( But I'm making a note to self about this one shelfie.
ReplyDeleteHope you're well, girlfriend.
I am slowly emerging from my summer daze. Now worries about my hop. Flaking out is fine. Flakey people are my favorite sort. You keep my life interesting. Hugs!
DeleteFun idea! I wouldn't dare take a photo of myself at the moment. I'm pretty sure I scared the Fed Ex man the other day. lol
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness Mary, I thought the same thing! I haven't even had time for a haircut...I've been cutting it myself. (Good thing my hair dresser is good at what she does, I've created her a nightmare to fix!)
DeletePerhaps I could put a Barbie on the shelf and fool people into thinking it's me?
Sounds fun and awesome!
ReplyDeleteLeave it to Tara to come up with awesome ideas!
DeleteI've tried to do a selfie but somehow ended up blocking my face. Not sure how that happened! A shelfie sounds like fun, but like someone else mentioned here, most of my books are electronic. When my husband and I moved across the country I actually had to leave all my books behind and you talk about having a broken heart! But my Kindle has helped me heal a bit, lol.
ReplyDeleteI buy more books on kindle now than I do in print. It's just so much easier to deal with. Now, I only keep my autographed books and my favorites.
DeleteI just took my first selfie this month as part of a scavenger hunt! I'll have to do this one :-) Love Tara!
ReplyDeleteI still haven't mastered the selfie. There is some secret to it, I think.
DeleteMy arms are never long enough for Selfies!
ReplyDeleteMaybe that's my problem! Imagine poor old T-rex trying to take one.
DeleteI need a good bookshelf! I'm a Kindle junkie. Although I probably could take a picture of me with my Kindle bookshelf if I could figure out an attractive way to arrange it besides the carousel view...
ReplyDeleteYou could do a vlog post and spin us through the carousel. But that's a lot of work.
DeleteYay for hops and typos!
ReplyDeletethanks again for helping host sweetie!
whew. In my haste to post- there are so many unintentional typos to go along with the planned ones. Just a reminder that edits are never done!
DeleteCool hop. I will consider it. :)
ReplyDeleteHope you do :)
