It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? (5)
February 28th, 2010 by the1stdaughter
This fabulous weekly recap is hosted by Shelia of One Persons Journey Through a World of Books. Each week we recap what we’ve read and look at what’s coming up this week. If you’re interested head over to Shelia’s site and get involved! It’s a blast and I may even stop by to see what you’re up to!
Here’s what we’ve been up to this week:
This week was insane! We spent the entire week at my in-laws while my husband (The Baker) took the Bar Exam for 3 days straight. I’m surprised I was able to review or post anything, but I did! This week is going to be great and we’ve got some great things coming up over the next couple of weeks, including the Share A Story ~ Shape A Future Event that’s happening from the 8th to the 14th. Make sure to check back for more details!

I love your review on “Cracked Up to Be”. This surely seems like a book that makes ones reflect back their own or of those that they love. Very good review on that one!
I’ll also be anticipating your reviews on both Wake and Fade. I’ve never read any book in this trilogy, so it’d be interesting to hear what you think of it.
Hoping you’ve a better week ahead.
Happy reading!

Read your review on Cracked Up to Be and enjoy it. I am planning on getting this one soon. Have a great week. How long before your husband get his results?
Thanks! He won’t hear back from the Bar exam until May 14th! It’s insane how long they drag it out, but they do have to manually grade all 8 or 9 essays from each participant. Keep your fingers crossed!
A great way for me to catch up with your news, thanks for sharing your week.
