Happy Sunday everyone!  Today finds me relaxing at the end of a very busy week.  It was one of those where I was semi-productive, but kept running into stumbling blocks, so it was frustrating at the same time.  I really hope next week is a little bit easier!  I did manage to carve out a good chunk of time for reading, though, and I’m really happy with my week on that front.  I finished some very interesting books this week – The Lake of Dreams by Kim Edwards, The Pioneer Woman by Ree Drummond, and A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness to name a few.  I’ll be spending some time today writing reviews to make sure I’m all caught up for this week.

On Tuesday, I managed to get out to One More Page Books, our brand new independent bookstore that opened last week.  I really enjoyed browsing the shelves (and of course purchasing – I bought The Art Detective by Philip Mould and Becoming Queen Victoria by Kate Williams) and talking to Eileen, the owner of the bookstore.  It’s so nice to have an indie that is easy to get to for me!

This week, Jennifer at Literate Housewife and I teamed up to do a series of posts on copyright infringement.  It’s something that has been becoming more of an issue for me, so I wanted my fellow bloggers to benefit from the research I’ve done on the subject.  I’ll include links to the series below, but if you want to find the posts in the future, you’ll be able to find links to them in my review database and in the “labels” section of my sidebar under copyright infringement.

Copyright Infringement: What Can I Do About It?

I also revived my Thursday Tunes feature (at least temporarily), which was a weekly feature in which I discussed music.  This week I featured the singer/songwriter Angie Aparo.
