It's Monday and life is crazy!



Hey there, bookish people. How are you doing? It's been a crazy week around here. We are in the midst of packing and getting ready to move in two weeks; and then we had a wedding, Mother's Day, and celebrating five birthdays. A happy Mother's Day to all of you beautiful mamas! 

So with all of that going on, not too much reading is getting done right now.

This one is moving rather slowly. I'm about halfway done, but I'm really feeling the length of this one.

    1. I've read Kelle's blog for a while, and she has a wonderful way of making you cry and then go out and really dig into life.

    Good luck with the move...I know how stressful and crazy that can be!

    1. I got it from the blogging secret Santa exchange this past December. I figure it will be a quick read in the midst of the craziness of moving!

    2. That cover makes me want to read it, but I don't know if I want to cry! I'm already reading something for that.

    4. I understand the feeling! It's a good contrast to the other book I'm reading right now, though.
