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. I love this meme ... thanks Sheila :)
I had a lovely weekend of laughs, great food and a little scrapping with girlfriends in Warwick (about 2 1/2 hrs drive from Brisbane.) I'm really happy with the 2 layouts I finished.
inspired by a layout on two peas

ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading your review of Between the Lines. I am on a waiting list for it at my library. I also look forwrad to your thoughts on Second Empress. I usually love Michelle Moran's books but was a little hesitant about picking this one up. I am not a fan of Napoleon at all.
ReplyDeleteI like the scrapbook pages from your cruise. That photo of the ship in the water is so pretty. Have a great week!
Love the cover of Little Night!

Great scrapbooking layouts...I so need to do some scrapbooking but it's hard to find time with all the books I need to read and blogging and my job and life in general.

No surprise on the fact you loved Moran's book, she always writes intriguing stories! Still can't fathom why I wasn't offered a review copy, LOL .. no biggie. Been swamped anyway so it's one book not mocking me!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the colors on your scrap pages, those would go perfect in my reading room. Such tranquility!
Enjoy your week!
My Monday post.
I loved the Moran book too! :D I look forward to your review
ReplyDeleteI think the cover for Animal Magnetism is adorable. Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteJanuary First sounds so powerful, I'm going to see if I can find a copy. Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading this week :D
Love the pictures! I must get to Power Of Six... I didnt realize the other one was on its way! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely layouts on the scrapping! Maybe I'll pick up Power of Six with my August Audible credits.
ReplyDeleteHave another good week. :-)
Your scrapbooking pages are awesome! I used to scrap our holidays until I realised I was taking about 800 photos each time we travelled! This time I've bought a journal so I can put a photo or two on each page with just a touch of scrapping. Enjoy your reads this week! xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pages! Great way to keep the memories fresh and in mind. Do you put them in frames and hang them on the wall? Then you can always look at it and feel peace. Have a fab week!
ReplyDeleteI need to hire you to do a scrapbook for Gage! You are very talented.
ReplyDeleteThose scrapbooking pages are gorgeous!
