Book Sightings!

November 1, 2005 | Filed under: Stuff

Lili Saintcrow sent me this today:

Jill, attached you will find two photos of your books, caught live on the shelf of my local Borders ( on 164th Ave in Vancouver, WA.) Just thought you’d like to see that they are there!

Lili

ps: I have already bought both of them, so I left them for the next customer, but I did turn one of them cover-out instead of spine-out. Hey, I’m a customer, they can’t fire me. :)

So a free book to Lili, whichever she wants from my backlist. And to anyone else who is brave enough to go into the bookstore and take a pic of my books on the shelves … send me the pic and you’ll get a free book too! I guess looking at my books on the shelves never gets old, lol.

What never gets old for you?

    Rather stupidly, still seeing my name in magazine and still getting acceptances more than 10 years on still gives me a buzz.

  2. Diane says:

    Typos too. I find they never get old. :no:

    That should have read “magazines” and “20 years on”. Tsk!

  3. Judy F says:

    Oh now I work in a bookstore. Will have to consider this my secret mission. (after the boss leaves)

  4. Sue says:

    I guess what never gets old for me it reading your books I love them that much I could read them over and over

  5. eve says:

    Deep dish sausage pizza with extra cheese – lots of extra cheese.
    Finding an old Shalvis book and adding it to the shrine.:yes:

  6. Melissa says:

    I don’t have a digi cam :hissyfit: but GET A CLUE is in both Walden’s and B&N in Newport, RI. I also saw GAC in the Borders Express in New London, CT. I always look at the section where your books are, Jill. :grin:

    My cat never gets old…and I mean that in two ways. :love:

  7. Sandy J says:

    Having good friends never get old. :heart:

  8. Judy F says:

    What never gets old for me, reading a good book, having dinner with friends.

  9. Susan says:

    Enjoying a good book, spending time with friends, and playing with my cats and dog.

  10. Lilith says:

    :) Oh, Jill, you are too cool. Hugs to you.

    Actually, seeing my books on Amazon or on the shelf never gets old for me. Guess I’m just in love with their little covers.

    Is Get A Clue on your backlist? I’ve been eyeing that one “fer a while.”

  11. Gail says:

    Reading a good book by a great author (ex — YOU) That never gets old for me.

  12. kim H says:

    reading and eating:rotfl:

  13. Jill says:

    Yeah, eating never gets old for me either …

    p.s. Lili, send me your snail mail addy.

  14. Kelly says:

    Watching the movies Mystic Pizza, The Outsiders, & Pretty Woman. :lol:

  15. Kimmy says:

    Going to a bookstore and acting like a kid in the candy store when I find a new release by my favorite author.
    It may get old or embarasing for my friends but not for me!! :)

  16. Emma Sinclair says:

    My first ebook came out today and I’ve already been to the website just to look a dozen times today.

    I can’t imagine it’ll ever get old.

  17. Mary Stella says:

    People writing to say they read and enjoyed my books. Not only does that never get old, each time it happens, it thrills me no end. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you to everyone who loves to read!

  18. Pat says:

    Looking at my daughter’s wedding photos. But then it has only been 6 wks. LOL.:bananadance:

  19. Carol says:

    :hissyfit: I don’t have a digi cam either Mel!
    Finding and reading Jill’s books never gets old for me either and spending time in a book store looking at all the wonderful books will never get old! :no:

  20. Karen Scott says:

    Ooohh, the next time I go into my local Borders, I’ll have to discreetly take a picture with my phone!

  21. Toni Anderson says:

    Jill–if and when I find you books in Winnipeg I’ll put em front and centre!!! That is a promise!!!!

    My kids saying ‘I love you’

    especially when I’m a witch to them :???:

  22. Beth Ciotta says:

    What never gets old for me? My husband telling me he thinks I’m pretty. :love:

    Your books look great on the shelf, Jill. Hoping someone snatches them up quick!

  23. Danica says:

    Sweet! Is it wrong of me to picture the name on the spine as my own?

    Sleep never gets old for me. :)

  24. Karmen says:

    We don’t have a bookstore in my town and I don’t know the next time I can get to a bookstore but my first Jill Shalvis book was brought by my husband. I was depressed after the birth of our son and he was doing the shopping. He came home from the Walmart with Blue Flame. Being a hunky fireman himself thought any book about a fireman had to be good.

  25. Christa Runge says:

    I’m with Mel and Carol, I don’t have one of those digi cams either. I’m also not electronically inclined and don’t know anything about sending pictures. I found and bought Men of Courage at Value Village Sunday in Toronto.That is one thing that will never grow old for me, finding Jill Shalvis books.

  26. Silma says:

    Sitting with my goddaughters and listening to them talk about their stuff – no matter how innane. :lol: I could do that forever.

  27. Donna M says:

    One thing I never get tired of my 2 daughters & my 3 grandchildren.:heart: I have never gotten tired of reading, it is the best! Thanks Jill for always giving us great reads.:smile:

  28. Brandy says:

    I never get tired of finding new authors and books. But, the #1 thing I’ll never get tired of is, hearing my kids or Dh say “I love you”.:love:

  29. Kate Hardy says:

    Me too on seeing my books on the shelf. (Especially when it’s the kids who find them – last night there was a squeak of, “Mummy, it’s your new book!” – I think they’re as pleased as I am, LOL)

    Other things that never grow old – a big hug from one of my kids, my DH’s lovely blue eyes (still give me that miss-a-beat feeling), hearing one of my favourite songs on the radio, and – oh, I have to say it. Chocolate! :bananadance:

  30. Alyssa says:

    Nuts, and I was at the bookstore yesterday. Fear not, though, I’m happy to make a special trip. :rotfl:
