Upcoming Review!

Okay, so I told you that one of my resolutions is to read at least 2 books a week, and I'm starting off badly!  I thought that I would have The Hunger Games finished today, but unfortunately, I am a slow reader these days!  But be sure to keep your eyes out for it because I am totally loving it!  I haven't finished it yet, but I've already started recommending it to everyone I know (which I never do before reading the end, cause let's face it, sometimes they stink).  I really just think this highly of what I've read of the book so far, so make sure you check back in a few days for my thoughts on the book in its entirety.

Also, congratulations to Alexa Young for the release of Faketastic today and to Jennifer Banash for the release of In Too Deep (also released today)!

That's all for today!  See you tomorrow for Waiting on Wednesday!

Oh my gosh I know. I was doing well with my reading until I went back to work yesterday and I have been getting so sleepy on the bus, there goes the reading time! Ahh! And now all the tv shows are back into new episodes!

I gave you a butterfly award.

Alea: TV just gets in the way!

Sharon: Yay! You've read The Hunger Games! Glad you loved it.

And thanks for the award!

And of course, guess what I'm doing right now.... watching tv!

LOL!!! I had to set the DVR. It was the only way to remove myself from in front of the TV the last two days. So this weekend, I will catch up on Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, 90210, and Privileged. By then I should have finished The Hunger Games (crosses fingers).

Alea said...

LOL! That's my Monday and Tuesday plus How I Met Your Mother and The Big Bang Theory. And that's not counting Wed, Thurs, and Sun! Can you tell I watch a lot of tv! I haven't watched Gossip Girl in weeks, it's all sitting on the dvr!

Alea: I am so glad I don't have nearly as many shows to watch. I try to limit myself to two a night. Luckily at the end of the week I only have Grey's on Thursday, Lipstick Jungle on Friday, and I usually watch new episodes of Degrassi when they're on. Oh yeah, and Desperate Housewives on Sunday!

Lauren: We both need to get on the ball! And yes, you need to find The Hunger Games!
