My Week in Review
*sigh* It's been a week. Just trying to have some hope and listen.
I picked my winner for our 7th Blogiversary giveaway. Congratulations to Czai! And, thank you to everyone, who celebrated with us.
In my imaginary Animal Crossing life, I had much success. I got my 5-star rating by cramming lots of stuff on my island.

I caught a lot of big fish, though, I failed, once again, at capturing a scorpion. It got me!
Kiersten came to visit yesterday. We always play and stay on the phone, so we had a nice catch-up. It's been a while, so it was time well spent.

This was an interesting reading week. I am most excited that Tanya and I are reading the same backlog book. I am also hoping she likes the book (I did). The new Cuba book from Chanel Cleeton was fabulous. I know, I don't usually gush about historical fiction, but I love this series. The Falling in Love Montage was another favorite. My best of the bunch was actually an audiobook - This is Our Story. I checked it out, because I loved Elston's 10 Blind Dates. It's nothing like that book, but I was so engrossed in the story, and enjoyed it way more than I thought I would.
