Here's this week's question from the Book Blogger Hop at Crazy for Books.com:

What's the one genre that you wish you could get into but just can't?

The Bad Catholic has never really had this problem. At one time or another I have dipped into everything: mystery, fantasy, science fiction, romance, Western. My mother used to read those Harlequin romance novels one right after the other, stacks of them. I even read a couple of those when I was growing up. Except for re-reading The Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Narnia, though, I haven't read too much fantasy in recent years. In fact, until I started this blog, I have concentrated on recent years in reading non-fiction, primarily history and theology.

The question for this week's Book Blogger Hop at Crazy for Books.com is Where do you get all your books?

The Bad Catholic answer: I should own Amazon and Alibris by now with all the money I have spent over the years. The people at the post office know me by name and think I'm crazy carting out armloads of book packages.

Amazon.com is to the bibliophile what the drug dealer is to crack cocaine!

This week's question for the blog hop at Crazy for Books.com is "Since today is April Fool's Day in the USA what is the best prank you have ever played on someone or that someone has played on you?"

The Bad Catholic's Answer: Here's the best prank I remember being played on me. We had only been out of college about a year and had only been married for a few months. My wife mailed a card to me at my job which had a picture of the stork on the front that said "Guess who's pregnant?" I almost passed out right there. When you opened the card it said "NOT ME!" I asked her not mail me any more greeting cards.
