Good morning! Happy Sunday! I was watching Harry Potter last night, Order Of The Phoenix and I love that when they take Christmas break he tells them all “Happy Christmas!” I love that! I am from the “Merry Christmas” part of the world but totally want to change it up! Perhaps I should say “Merry Sunday” to you!
Perhaps… I should quit rambling. 😛
I left the house on Friday early afternoon for a short trip to the cabin up North. Not short in driving… it was almost 4 hours (one way) with the road construction which is always a sign of spring in Minnesota, but short as in I only stayed overnight and returned later Saturday afternoon. I went to check on things as I have not been there since January and watched two movies, ‘Grown Ups’ and ‘Jump The Broom’, and then proceeded to get deep into the book Confessions Of A Prairie Bitch by Alison Arngrim (Nellie Olson). Possible review up later today.
For the last few weeks I have been planning a Sunday post with the books that have come in the house and week after week I seem like I never get the post up – SO…. here it is. The books that have arrived over the past three weeks:
A couple of the books, With A Name Like Love and Wreath are for the INSPY Award judging. I am a judge in the YA category. There are 5 books to read total for that. Houdini was a find I picked up at a sale on Friday. When I made my purchase the elderly man running the sale told me to “not try the stunts inside”…LOL How did he know?
So there we are. A little over a week out from BEA, I will be flying into New York next Tuesday morning. If you are also going to BEA please look me up and say hi! I will be watching my twitter @bookjourney for messages and the Blogger Connection list that people have signed up on will be going out later today or tomorrow.




I definitely want to read Confessions of a Prairie Bitch….loved that show. I get nostalgic just thinking of it.
We were living in a quirky house (an English Tudor), and I can still see the kids on the floor watching the show when I came into the house just when the show started. I was counseling at Planned Parenthood some evenings back then.
Funny the things we associate with TV shows….
Here’s MY SUNDAY SALON POST
Be warned Laurel… I am finishing up the book and she gives you so much of what id happening behind the scenes of the episodes that I just ordered season one of LHOTP…. LOL
I’ll arrive in New York on Wednesday and I’m looking forward to seeing you!
Wow, so many good books in your mailbox and this is before BEA!!! Have a great time in NYC 🙂
I think my husband would kill me if that many books came into our house in three weeks’ time! lol
If I had all those books to read I think I’d be having a meltdown! 🙂 nice ones though
