An Unexpected Partnership?

I'm all about cross-promotion, but this one just seems oddly funny to me.

Denny's is promoting the upcoming The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey with a new Hobbit themed menu. Customers can order things like Gandalf Gobble Melt and Shire Sausage and Frodo's Pot Roast Skillet. They can also receive collectible cards.

I guess it makes some sense-Hobbits do like to eat throughout the day and Denny's is open 24 hours. It's just not the first thing I would think of when it comes to promoting The Hobbit.

So what do you think? Creative cross-promotion or not?

    I approve. It's fun and it's not detrimental in any way. Four for you, Hobbit.

Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell

Rating: 5/5 Stars Genre: Realistic Fiction Release Date: 2/26/2013 Add to Goodreads About the Book: Eleanor and Park are both misfits.

GreenBeanTeenQueen Says: Have you ever had a book sit on your shelf that you've heard so much hype about? And you think that books sounds like it would be right up your alley, but you're in a reading slump and you're afraid to give it a try unless it fails? I knew Eleanor and Park sounded like my perfect book, but I was in such an after committee slump that I even though I knew this book would help, I just didn't want to be disappointed.

Post Downton Abbey Reading List

Downton Abbey is over (with a shocking and frustrating ending!) and now I'm suffering Downton Abbey withdrawal. I've got a reading list full of books that I hope will satisfy my post-Downton Abbey cravings and I thought I'd share what's in my pile and get suggestions for other after Downton reads. Here's what I hope to be reading this year (a mix of YA and adult titles):                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  A couple Julian Fellowes reads:                And a few re-reads:                    Edited to add: What's on your Post-Downton Abbey reading list?
