It's been a busy, good week for us. We did a lot of cleaning and organizing, mostly in the room of a certain eight year old. I made some pies this week - one for a woman from our church who has been sick, and one for us to enjoy. (They're apple, by the way.)
On Friday, D and I went to see a high school production of Shrek. My mom did an amazing job playing a lot of music; she's a wonderful pianist.
I reviewed Flight of Dreams and The Only Ones, both of which I recommend. I also wrote about February, with all of its sickness and reading.
Next up is Passenger and Addie Zierman's new book Night Driving.
What are you reading this week?
Yummy apple pies - looking very edible. Wasn't Flight of Dreams so good.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathryn! Yes, it was wonderful. I may or may not have cried a bit about events that happened almost 100 years ago!
DeleteThe Golem and the Jinni looks so interesting. I love the cover! And I heard a lot of good things about Passanger.
ReplyDeleteMy It's Monday! What Are You Reading? post.
I really loved it. And I just found out there will be a sequel. Hooray!
DeleteYum! Your pies look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThanks! They were delicious, although I discovered my son would prefer I made cookies...
DeleteMmm that looks so good! I'm reading The Master and Margarita.
ReplyDeleteThe Master and Margarita is one of those books I keep seeing on all sorts of lists, but I haven't read yet. I will keep my eye out for your thoughts!
DeleteI am hungry for apple pie now. They look wonderful. I'll have to check out Flight of dreams and passengers. Have a wonderful day. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha. I'm glad I could help? :)
DeleteMr. Splitfoot has gotten a lot of rave reviews lately, but I can't decide whether it's for me. The pies look delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a strange read, but I think it's a really original and wonderful book!
DeleteI will talk about the pies first. :)
ReplyDeleteThey look amazing and so delicious.
ENJOY your reading week and your pie.

My It's Monday, What Are You Reading
Always talk about dessert first, right?? :)
DeletePies look yum. :)
ReplyDeleteI love Passenger's cover. I look forward to reading your review.
Thanks! I hope to finish it this weekend.
DeleteI've seen Passenger everywhere on book blogs, I don't know much about it, but it certainly seems popular, I hope it's good!
ReplyDeleteIt's a really fun concept. So far, it's about a girl who finds out she has the ability to travel through passages, and go to different times and places.
DeleteMmmm apple! And Shrek! Both fun (except the cleaning...I'm doing that here as well as I combine the littles' bedrooms).
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about The Golem and the Jinni! I need a really immersive book but I'm afraid it's too long for my brain right now. Look forward to hearing what you think!
I hope the room combining goes well! Are the girls excited?
DeleteIt was a little long, but it didn't drag for me the way longer books sometimes do. I loved it a lot. :)
Wow! All of these books are new to me. I'll have to check them out and add them to my TBR list. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading to you too!
DeleteI NEED to read Mr.Splitfoot asap. I totally forgot to add it to my Spring TBR.
