A Month of Faves: {My Faves From The Week!}

a month of favorites event GirlXoxo

You guys.. I have a secret (well not so secret now!) confession. I haven’t read ALL the posts from this week. I’m caught up on Monday and Thursday posts since ya’ll linked up at my blog (just read them today tho!) and I’m beginning to catch up on Tues and Wed posts. Friday- I’ll get them to sometime!

Why I am so late? Life. The kitty cat had his pin removed yesterday and was groggy from the meds and was just so pitiful. Then other things like a tree getting decorated, trying to sort out all the family Christmas get togethers- and ya’ll, I’m tired!

Link it up today at Estella’s Revenge and give a major shout-out to Girlxoxo who had the mind to dream up this event that has brought us all together! Continue reading

So 2014 was the birth of a joint feature called Futuristic Friday. I asked Katie @ Doing Dewey to join in and she quickly agreed. For me, it’s been the best- me and Katie do have some similar reading tastes (we are both She Reads bloggers!) but Katie also loves her some nonfiction and other books- books that would fly under my radar without her mentioning them and making me aware!

When this feature started, it was something I needed. I need to break down the reading year into smaller chunks, to find the books I want to read and to focus on that (which then frees up my mind to sort through interesting review requests/free range reading) So, I told Katie that toward the end of the year, I was going to do a post that tallied up how many books I suggested/read…. Here is the post!

So.. how did I do? Continue reading
