This Week in Reading - October 8


It's Sunday Post time!  This is hosted by the awesome Caffeinated Book Reviewer and gives us all a chance to recap our week.

What I Got:


Double Grudge Donuts by Ginger Bolton - I really enjoyed the previous book in this series so I'm really looking forward to reading this one.  (Publisher)

A Midnight Puzzle by Gigi Pandian - This is another series I've really been enjoying and I'm looking forward to reading more about the adventures of Tempest.  (Publisher)

Public Anchovy #1 by Mindy Quigley - I've heard great things about this series so when I was offered this one I couldn't resist it!  (Publisher)

Coconut Drop Dead by Olivia Matthews - I loved the previous book in this series so of course I had to pick this one up! (Publisher)

Currently:


Reading:
  Sugar Plum Poisoned by Jenn McKinlay and Beer and Loathing by Ellie Alexander

Listening:  Killer Green Tomatoes by Lynn Cahoon


We are back from vacation and had such a wonderful time!  We did a Disney cruise to the Bahamas and then the Halloween party at Disney World and both were fantastic.  I was really impressed with how clean the ship felt and the service was absolutely wonderful.  Will had such a good time and got used to unlimited pizza and ice cream very very quickly!  The Halloween party was really fun and we focused on the rides  Will discovered that he really enjoyed roller coasters that don't have drops so we did Big Thunder Mountain Railroad 6 times and really I think he could have gone again.

It was so fun to be on vacation after so long and we enjoyed every minute of it.  We got back earlier this week and have been scrambling to get all the laundry and whatnot done before real life starts again on Monday.  I have a new round of obedience classes to teach starting Monday which I'm mostly excited for - especially puppy class - but not sure I'm quite ready to get back on a schedule.

Have a great week and happy reading!

  5. I'm delighted that you all had such a wonderful holiday - yes... my grandsons could easily get used to pizzas on tap, too. The photo of Will having fun is a delight. I hope the coming week isn't too much of a bump back to earth:)).

  6. What a great thing for you to have such a fun holiday. I'm making pizza tonight! Routine is always comfortable once you get back in the swing and puppies make everything better.

  13. What a great trip! And well deserved/needed, I'm sure. I don't like *any* kind of rollercoaster, so kudos to Will for braving Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. :)
