Good morning!  Happy Friday!  If I could… I would roll in this day.  On the carpet….  like a dog. 😀  I have had a whirlwind week of being gone last weekend and coming home on Sunday for ten minutes before I dropped off the dog, picked up a book and headed another direction for a work retreat that brought me to Tuesday afternoon where I went home, showered, and left with my friend Amy to an author event in the cities.

*whew*

Wednesday I was tired, and Thursday I started to recover but yes… today – being a non work day… oh yeah 😀  I have a couple fun commitments this afternoon but for the most part…. January 31st is mine.

Coming our of January I am fairly pleased with how my reading month went to kick off 2014.  I read:

Then Again by Diane Keaton (audio)

The Broken Path by Cami Checketts (audio)

Reconstructing Amelia by Kimberley McCreight

Labor Day by Joyce Maynard

Big Girl Panties by Stephanie Evanovich

Flowers In The Attic by V C Andrews

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline (audio)

I have a few reviews to write yet,but over all I am pleased with the month considering I have hardly read a thing this past week.  You can see my WHERE are you reading page here, and my map (Which I love!!!) here.

How is your reading this first month into the year?

I am also still looking for the authors for Wine and Words this year.  I am securing two Minnesota authors but would also like two from outside Minnesota. If you have any suggestions of who would make a great speaker for this August 22nd event that will have 200 people in attendance to hear them and purchase books, please email me at journey through books @gmail.com.
