Vacation!

Sorry I haven't posted all week. I have been on vacation with my amazing fiance. We spent the week at the beach and pool in beautiful South Carolina. I read every day and loved it. I finished an entire book in one day! 

I re-read an old favorite:


and ready 2 new ones:
    

 I started to re-read the first in a series I started awhile ago but never finished:


I would highly recommend any of these books. Granted, if you don't like fantasy, none of them would probably tickle your fancy except for The Last Summer (of You and Me). That one was beachy, romantic, sad, and wonderful. A must read. It's funny, I wandered around Barnes and Noble the weekend before we left trying to find a new book to take with me. I always find it incredibly difficult to find a new book. I love books. I just don't like judging books by their covers (sorry for the cliche). I feel like I have to literally take every book off of the shelf and read the backs to make sure I'm not missing a book I would like. This causes me to spend HOURS in a bookstore. I finally narrowed it down to buying The Last Summer (of You and Me) and Switched...while making 2 "To Read" lists in my phone as I went. In the end I am so happy with my choices. I found a a new summer favorite and a new series to read. Switched is book 1 of a 3 book series that I wanted to go buy the rest of as soon as I finished the book. I plan on doing that soon. Very soon. As for now, I have to go unpack all my crap (ugh) and get ready for reality to start back up tomorrow. Which will actually be kinda exciting as we are going to get our pre-approval tomorrow for our house!!!!! And then the house hunt begins by going to look at, oh say, 4-5 on Saturday. Yay!

I'm off for now. See ya!

  1. I'm working on trying to get a reading list together now that I actually have time to read for the first time in 4 years. So, thanks for the suggestions.
