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, it helps me stay on track ... well, most of the time. Thanks Sheila!

  4. What fun displays! All we have up so far are the Christmas tree and stockings by the fireplace. I'm not sure we'll do anything as cool as yours but I hope we put some more decorations up to really get in the holiday spirit!

  5. I read What Alice Forgot before I read The Husband's Secret and both are excellent. I am glad you liked Crash Into You. I haven't read Legend yet but I do hope the series ends well. So many of them fizzle out or disappoint.

    Nice Christmas decorations! I love the silver and blue color combination. That is usually what I decorate my tree with when I actually put it up :)

  6. The decorations are so pretty. I hope to get some decorating done this week. I started Pushing the Limits last night at 9:30 and did not put it down until I finished. Look forward to the next book in the series. Lookig forward to Sarah Jio's newest. Have a great week.

  7. You are very crafty, not only cards but awesome decorations. I have The Husband's Secret on audio to listen to eventually, pleased to know it is great in that format.

  14. Your decorating is beautiful, the only that I've done is Gage's advent tree. My mom comes tomorrow so maybe I can make a dent in finding that Christmas spirit!
