A weekly event hosted by Sheila from Book Journey to discuss your reading week ~ the books you've read and those you plan on reading in the coming week. Thanks Sheila :)
A fun, busy week with lots of cooking. Bella our little girl adopted from RSPCA turned two on Wednesday. Many of you know what a rough start she had in life but she's much better now, stronger, braver, and while her coat will probably never fully grow back we think she's gorgeous :)
Didn't get a whole lot of reading done as we spent a wonderful weekend with my sister and her family, celebrating Christmas. They arrived home after 7 weeks holidaying in UK, Paris & Scotland!

Under the Never Sky looks great, hope you enjoy reading it :-)
ReplyDeleteI've heard good things about Cinder - but I have to say I don't like the cover much! Hope you enjoy your reads this week too :-)
ReplyDeleteI am interested to read Cinder, I just got it from the library. Also, I want to read Under the Never Sky but it will have to wait.
ReplyDeleteMy Monday list: http://rachelreader.blogspot.com/2012/01/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-13.html
I like the sound of Cinder but I will probably wait until all the books in the series are out before reading it.
ReplyDeleteBella is gorgeous! Thank you very much for the Christmas card :) I was awfully happy to see it and gotta admit, I bragged a little when my family came over about my awesome card from Australia :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week - looks like your going to be busy!
Oh, happy birthday, Bella!
