Sunday Salon - Fall is Really Here!

Labels: ,



Well, I have to let go of summer...it really is fall...the leaves are starting to be on the ground and there is a chill in the air. I can't wear shorts anymore. It was bound to happen :) Although I must admit, fall is really is a beautiful time of the year. I love all the pretty colors.

I discovered a new-to-me TV show this week, Dirty Sexy Money and I'm hooked. I have the season 1 DVDs and watched a couple of episodes today. I'm addicted! It reminds me of the old TV show Dallas, one of my all-time favorite TV shows ever, except it's not set in Texas. Peter Krause is so handsome!

Now down to books...I listened to my second audio book, Hissy Fit by Mary Kay Andrews, the review is already in my blog. I'm still not 100% used to listening to audio books, but I'm getting the hang of it. Now I've started Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot. It starts off pretty funny.

I joined the Libray Thing Early Reviewers and read/reviewed my first book - Any Given Doomsday by Lori Handeland. It's been a long time since I read a book in the paranormal genre. It was good, although some of the characters didn't appeal to me. I'll read the book #2, though. My review is already up on LT and on my blog.

I received another book from Avon to review - Back to Life by Kristin Billerbeck. It's the second book in her "A Trophy Wives Club" series. I enjoyed the first one and I've been anxious to read the second. Hopefully my Sunday will allow some reading time.

Enjoy your week!

    A friend of mine lives in upstate New York and one year for my birthday, she gave me a beautiful landscape photograph she'd taken of a country road in the fall near her house. I keep it at work year round and often look at it when I need to remind myself to slow down. It's such a gorgeous picture. I've been to New York state before, but never in the fall. Maybe someday!

    I hope you have a great week! And enjoy reading Back to Life!

    Upstate New York really is beautiful and this is the perfect time of year to visit. I live on Long Island in the suburbs and it's pretty here too.

    Ive just discovered audio books too - they take some getting used to but I'm finding them a good way of tackling the classics - especially if you have a strong narrator. If you're interested in classics then check out librivox.org.
