Free Listens for October 2013

I have noticed most bloggers post every week, month or just once in awhile a list of free or really close to free e-books. I love free books. Free e-books and audiobooks.

Yes there is a such thing as a free audiobook. And they are not just boring old classics either. I seem to run across a few new ones here and there. So I thought I would share my free audiobook finds with you. I mean who does not like free.

If you are new to audiobooks this is a great why to try one or two without spending any money.

Dewey's 24 Hour Read-A-Thon Oct 2013: Goals

Hosted by Dewey's 24 Hour Read-A-Thon

Guess what tomorrow is?

Read-A-Thon day!

Yes, one complete, 24 hour long, day devoted to reading and reading and snacks. This going to be my 5th RAT! Whew!

I am going to lock myself in my place, turn the cell onto silent mode and read and snack like no bodies business. I even cancelled my workout session with my trainer today. Why? Because it's read-a-thon day! I'm on my way to Trader's Joes to stock pile my kitchen with healthy and not so healthy read-a-thon snacks and beverages hot and cold. Last read-a-thon I made the mistake of including wine with my read. It was just a glass (or two) around hour 15. Needless to say I didn't see hour 16 and beyond. This time NO WINE!

Before I head to the supermarket I thought I would let you know what my Read-A-Thon Goals are.

I Love This! Khloe's Bag

I am not a big celebrity watcher. I don't mind staring at their purses and wondering if I can find it at TJMaxx.

I ran across this Polyvore page created by amber-nicki-rose and I fell in love with Khloe Kardashian's purse. That is the perfect fall bag for all my stuff. I think I could fit my ipad in there and have room for a paperback book. Purses like this are great for holiday travel too! Bottle of TSA approved Mountain Spring Water...check. Book to read...check. Snacks...check! That bag can hold it all!

Waiting on Wednesday: 1st Phone Call from Heaven

"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly meme, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that I am eagerly anticipating.
Yes, I am back again with another WoW post. I am such a pack follower. LOL! Anyways, it's only because I found yet another book I am looking forward to reading when it comes out.
