Okay, so I had an AMAZING reading week. I can’t show you book covers because I’m on my dad’s laptop at my parents’ condo and their internet keeps going in and out. Instead, I’ll give you a title and author and a very brief thought to hold you over for my longer reviews.
Real Life & Liars by Kristina Riggle – Fantastic! Loved it!
The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown – Dude’s just coasting now (review).
Right of Thirst by Frank Huyler – Well written, but I was hoping for more conflict.
Daughter of Kura by Debra Austen – Good writing and story, a bit disconcerting to read a story where the main characters are homo erectus, not homo sapien
Little Giant of Aberdeen County by Tiffany Baker – Both the story and the audio production were great
Saffron Dreams by Shaila Abdulla – Hopeful and real.
This week was also great because my parents came into town yesterday. They stole Daniel and kicked us out to go on our second date sans bebe since he was born over 3 months ago. We went to a nice Greek restaurant and then walked around Barnes and Nobles. My husband even bought me two YA books: Dreaming Anastasia by Joy Preble and Liar by Justine Larbalestier. How much better can a date get?!?
I won’t be around much today, because we’re off to take Daniel apple picking with his Nana and PaPa.

You did have an amazing week. You are the queen. Good for you that you were able to get out by yourselves…I maintain this to be the best thing for a marriage, even though all you do is talk about the kids when you’re out. Have a great Sunday!

Aww, a sweet husband for buying you some YA. I’m still on the waiting list at the library for “The Lost Symbol,” but you’ve convinced me not to run out and buy it!

My idea of a good date night is about the same … dinner and book store. (However, my husband doesn’t always share this view. He would skip the book store.)

I loved your down and dirty book reviews! I hope you enjoyed your date. They’re important. Danny and I don’t do that nearly enough.
