Life: Where did the month go? It is the last Sunday Salon of February 2011! Time is moving so very quickly. February was a month filled with excellent books and I am hoping March proves to be just as wonderful.
Family Update: It was a lovely week. We went to a performance our oldest was in and then he and his a cappella group travelled to Chicago for an International competition. He had a wonderful time in Chicago visiting the sights, shopping, and watching a production of Les Misérables. Since he did not get home until early this morning I will not know more until he wakes. All is well with my family. My son has narrowed in on choice for Universities, which means soon the suspense for us will be over, until it is the twins’ turn. They will be visiting colleges and Universities soon.
Saturday Night: It was just DH and me, since our oldest was out of town and the twins had other plans. My husband agreed to an Austen themed movie night. I loved it, but I do not think cared for it too much, however he was quite a trooper.
Read and Reviewed: I read and reviewed 9 books and spotlighted a 10th. Please take a look at my reviews, I read some truly brilliant books this past week and had a very difficult time choosing a favorite.
If you do not want to wait until Monday to see the entire list for the week, all my reviews are up and as usual I love comments.
Today I will be reading: (if I have time) The Terror of Living by Urban Waite
Happy Reading and please feel free to leave comments or suggestions.
Visit the The Sunday Salon.
I’m glad to see you were able to make it to your son’s performance. I hope you have another great week in books!
I was too and they had a wonderful time in Chicago. Everyone get to travel but me.
I need to slow my reading down, not because I want to rather my head is insisting.
Chi town – one of my favorite places, probably still snowed under as we are here in Ohio. Good reading weather though. Enjoy your week!
We did not get the snow this far south in Ohio, but there trip was a snowy one. He had a fabulous time.
Your Saturday movie nights sound like fun! And how great that your husband was a “trooper” about Austen night. LOL
Hope you have a great day and a great new week.
Here’s MY SUNDAY SALON POST
Yes, he was not thrilled about my Austen marathon, but of How I do enjoy them.
Sounds like a great week. So glad your son had fun in Chicago! My hubby’s going there next week and I am jealous for sure

My son had a fabulous time and arrived home at a scary early hour this morning. He did not take one picture (shaking my head).
Les Misérables is in Chicago??!! How do I not know this? I am going to have to check that out as it is just a couple of hours way and I love Le Miz! Glad you had a quiet weekend with Austen! ;o)

Your son sounds so talented!! Mine loves to sing and act too!!

Thank you. My oldest is very well rounded, all due to him. He is self-motivated.
