Winter's Respite Read-a-thon Wrapup



I am a bit late wrapping this up but life kind of got in the way. I wasn't as successful as I hoped to be but I did get two books read and one started. Not bad seeing our house was completely insane this past week. Our oldest dog has seizures and this past week has been having them about every other day. It has made it hard to concentrate on anything. I found myself rereading pages over and over again. The vet has upped the dogs medicine and we are hoping things will quiet down. Hopefully it will be easier to read this week. Thank you to Michelle at The True Book Addict for hosting the read-a-thon. Michelle will be doing another one this spring as well so keep your eyes opened for her Spring's Serenity Read-a-thon.

Winter's Respite Read-a-thon



The weather here is going to be very cold this week so this week will be a great week for reading. On that note I have decided to go ahead and join in on The Winter's Respite Read-a-thon hosted by Michelle at The True Book Addict. The event is very flexible and you can still join up. I plan on reading when I can, curled up with a cozy blanket and a cup of hot tea. I am not setting any goals, just going where the gusty, cold wind takes me. Go on over to Michelle's blog and check it out and join in on the fun!

I am halfway through The Queen of Palmyra by Minrose Gwin. I will hopefully be finishing that today after I shovel some very heavy, wet snow.
