April Wrap-up

April was a great month! I had family come in town to celebrate Easter. I don't know who had more fun the kids or the "big" kids. As far as May it's my birthday month [yay!!] and my last year in my 30’s. I’ve never freaked out about my age to me it’s just a number. I’ll be celebrating with family over Memorial weekend. It’s also what I consider the kick off to summer. Cant wait to dive into all the fab summer reads that will be coming out soon. Speaking of books it’s about that time to share what I’ve read, bought, received from publishers this last month and of course a little music thrown in for good measure.

  1. Are you planning on reviewing "Love and Other Foreign Words"? The author is coming to my friend's school I believe on Friday & she's getting the book for me! If it was one of your favorites, I would LOVE to see what you thought of it :)

  2. Nice little wrap up!! I've got to request a few on Edelweiss. Author of Kiss, Kill, Vanish lives in Orlando near me and she is fabulous! She even came to my son's school and spoke after The Vow was out. I want to read Little Mercies and One Plus One too.
