Here’s the upcoming schedule of voting. We’ll be holding the votes open from noon to midnight for each round from now until the finale. (Hello, again, South Korea! G’day, Australia! And you, too, New Zealand!)
Round 3: March 27-28 (Sweet Sixteen)
Round 4: March 29-20 (Elite 8)
Round 5: April 5 Final Four
Round 6: April 7 Championship
Don’t forget we have 2 tourneys going on. The first is the original DA BWAHA with the finalists (the author of the winning book and the owner of the winning bracket) getting mad props, big ups, a six-month subscription to Paperspine, books, feathers and a dirty locket or whatever she chooses from Lochers.com.
The Second Chance tourney was set up for the poor fools whose bracket was kicked out of competition early on. We are giving the second chance bracket winner some random prizes like books, both paper and audio on CD and - hooray! - from Bruce Wilder’s Turn the Page Bookstore, a $25.00 gift certificate for any book that TTP has in stock. Or they can order. Or they can whip one up really damn fast because he knows this author? Who writes like the wind? Yeah. Anyway. TTP is in the house.
Give it up for our sponsors:
Thanks folks!
*applause for the sponsors*
*applause for the hosts*
Sarah, I entered the second chance tourney, but how did I manage to knock myself out of it already? Am I that lame, again?
A website that reviews romance novels from a couple of smart bitches who will always give it to you straight. No bullshit. No gushing--unless the author really deserves it. To find out more, read all about us or check out our minty-fresh and funkadelic FAQ section.
I love the Sandra Boynton books. I’ll add Each Peach Pear Plum and The Hungry Caterpillar which I don’t think have been mentioned.
For older kids, Roald Dahl, Anne of Green Gables and Edith Nesbit.
mac: no worries. I really do see where you’re coming from too. And no, I’m an Aries. ah, but for the grace of a couple of months… :)
Suze: thanks for the link (it worked).
Thanks…
I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always, as long as I’m living my baby you’ll be. That’s what came to mind as soon as I read your post and I see I’m not the only one. I gave…
The Littel Mouse, The Red Ripe Strawberry, and THE BIG HUNGRY BEAR by Don and Audrey Wood was one of my favorites, and my son loves it now, too. We still have my old copy from the 80s!

Are You My Mother was the very first book I ever read on my own! I’d gotten tired of waiting for my mom to have time, so I did it myself. That’s also the reason I tied my shoes myself…
