Good morning everyone! This week has been all about catching up and getting some reading done, which I’ve loved.  It’s always nice to have one of those quiet weeks where you don’t have to stress out about anything – I almost forgot what that felt like! 

I finished quite a few books this week, which is a welcome change.  There are so many great books coming out in 2012, and I seem to want to read all of them!  Some of the great ones I read this week are A Grown Up Kind of Pretty by Joshilyn Jackson, Outside the Lines by Amy Hatvany, and The House at Sea’s End by Elly Griffiths.  I adored all of these books.  Of course, now that I’ve stepped up on reading, I’m uber-behind on reviews.  It’s a vicious cycle, but one that I love to be a part of!

Next week, the blog posting schedule returns to normal, which will be nice.  I’m also hoping to have a lot of reading time again, as it’s how I unwind and decompress after a long day.

Reviews posted this week:


A Red Herring Without Mustard – Alan Bradley


Sarah’s Key – Tatiana de Rosnay


Affairs of Steak – Julie Hyzy


If Jack’s In Love – Stephen Wetta


Boozehound – Jason Wilson


Blind Submission – Debra Ginsberg


The Partly Cloudy Patriot – Sarah Vowell

  1. Calm and normal is SO GOOD! I had a week like that and it was glorious. I cannot wait to read Jackson’s new book. I am stalwartly waiting for the audio.

  3. It’s nice to have a calm and quiet week for reading, so I am thrilled for you that you got a chance to experience that. I had a very busy week, and have been looking forward to more time curled up with a book this time around. I can’t wait to hear what you thought of the Jackson book. I have heard great things about her writing!
