The weight of silence is an interesting book (I liked your review as well). Am waiting for your giveaway as well!
ReplyDeleteI love the pics!
ReplyDeleteI'll be curious to see what you thought of Dracula in Love. I couldn't bring myself to finish it. Enjoy your week!
Ooooh, I'm going to pop over for your Unearthly review, I just finished it today and I quite liked it too!
ReplyDeleteAt least your books are good - that's what counts! Love your pictures! Here is a really book dork question... in the picture of Callum he is standing in front of books (YAY!) I see the Twilight series - but what are the four colorful books that appear to be a set to the right (my right) of his head? The little fat books.
ReplyDeleteThree 4.5 and above books? Looks like some fantastic reading! Enjoy your upcoming books.
ReplyDeleteI Teddyree - Thanks for sharing the photos.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear you liked I Am The Chosen King which I will be reading next month.
Have a good week. :-)
No read Gudenkauf's These Things Hidden, it is brilliant. I too liked Indefensible and I look forward to your thoughts on The Tudor Secret. I Am the Chosen Kin/Harold the King was indeed brilliant! Have a wonderful week reader. My Monday: http://www.rundpinne.com/2011/02/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-26.html
ReplyDeleteI loved the Weight of Silence- and look forward to checking out all the books you've mentioned here. Will add your blog to my fave list!
ReplyDeleteFebruary has been a slow month for me too. Look forward to your thoughts on Beautiful Darkness :)
ReplyDeleteFive stars for Unearthly, think I need to get it. I am going over to check out your review. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteNice list of books you are planning to read. I wish I could read the Tudor Secret, it sounds really interesting. Enjoy reading!
ReplyDeleteGlad you loved Unearthly. It is a fantastic book, isn't it. Just noticed that Sarah Addison Allen has another book coming out in MArch! Didn't know that.
ReplyDeleteExit the Actress seems to be pop right now. On my wishlist.
ReplyDeletehave a good week

Unearthly seems to be the one to read right now. Have a great reading week.
ReplyDeleteI have heard great things about "Unearthy" and "Exit the Actress"... I will come back for your giveaway and review of Exit the Actress.
ReplyDelete"Drink wine" is such a creative sign :)
Whoever created that "wine" sign is a woman (I'm sure it's a woman!) after my own heart.
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked Weight of Silence...I read it awhile ago, but it was so memorable. I just got her other book last week...These Things Hidden.
Enjoy your reading and your wonderful family.
Here's my MONDAY MEMES POST
Dracula in Love sounds interesting. Here's my It's Monday post.
ReplyDeleteHave a fab week! My It's Monday is here and don't forget to join in Read My Review, which this week has a Love/Romance theme for Valentine's Day.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for camp. Am spending the day packing today! Must also do someo reading this week!
ReplyDeleteNever forget that the number of books read per month is seriously over-rated but the quality is the most important part!!
ReplyDeletehave a great time this weekend. Can't wait to see your gorgeous layouts!!
I just read Unearthly too and thought it was so very good! I read it in less than a day :) I don;'t even normally like paranormal so was surprised to get so into it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely get well message! You are awesome. Have a brilliant weekend! xo Nomes
Nothing beats a great read, and time with friends for sure. Callum is growing up quite fast. I thought he was older than 12, but don't tell him I said that :) Have fun with Alaine at camp.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting to the end of I am the Chosen King now and I agree with you, it is indeed brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what you thought of Dracula In Love. I started reading it but gave up at about page 80 or so. I couldn't stand Mina.
