The Weekend Review - February 14th-February 16th








The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.

If you'd like to participate with The Sunday Salon, it is now being hosted by Deb at Readerbuzz.

It’s Monday! What Are You Reading is a meme with a new host!  It's now being hosted by Kathryn at Book Date. This is where we share what we read this past week, what we hope to read this week…. and anything in between! This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read” book will come from!

I'm also linking to Stacking the Shelves which is hosted by Reading Reality.


Hi Everyone!  

Happy Valentine's Day! We went to a local restaurant for a Chinese buffet, and it was really good.  We haven't been there in a while.

I've been getting back into walking and listening to audiobooks.  It feels good to be getting some exercise in again.

Another good thing for me is that I've been reading so many great books lately.  My reading year has started off well.

I watched a really good movie this week "Song Sung Blue". It's based on the real-life story of a couple who were a tribute band for Neil Diamond. It starred Kate Hudson and Hugh Jackman.  I thought it was really done well.

Overall, it's been pretty quiet here. I hope you are all doing well and have a great week!

  3. I glad you've been able to get outdoors. We are having some nice weather after a good six weeks of below normal winter temps. I'm going to follow your lead and go for a walk with an audiobook!

  7. Hurrah for getting back to walking! I should pick myself some audiobooks and do some more walking too, following your example -- normally I like to go cycling, but I can't at the moment.

    Looks like you had a great week for reading and blogging!
