Literary Friday, ya’ll…

Ya’ll… It’s hot. HOT. I do not look good sweating and as I was walking the yard looking for my missing cat last night, rescuing a bird, and then saving a frog’s life from one of my other cats- I was hot. Redfaced. Upset because my cat that was missing is my sweet cat- but the one who manages to find trouble (Last time he went missing- he came home with a broken hip and over 500 bucks later at vet- he at least can climb and jump again!) So, when I saw a furry black creature running toward me last night and then heard his signature “Brr-ing”- I scooped him up and took him in the house for our version of Facetime (Jerry rubs my face with his head and sings “Brr-ing”)  and me a very cold drink! Being a cat momma is tough work!

#SRC2016: June Selections

SRC header

Booksparks is becoming my go-to word to associate with summer reading 🙂 They select a variety of books (some big name easy to recognize and some that fly under the radar a bit) but the best thing about Booksparks is they get you EXCITED about reading. Their team is so social-licious, so you know when you post something- a RT or a like is headed your way. Even better: The folks that sign up for summer reading- well she share like crazy, get all inspired with our picture taking, and the community feeling- well, it’s just the best!

 

In case you missed May’s #SRC2016 readings- here are my posts: The Assistants, Don’t You Cry, The House of Bradbury, Appetite, and First Comes Love!

Grab the sunscreen because #SRC2016 is going to make June HOT 🙂 Continue reading →

Miss A is coming to the house this weekend- we have Gazillion bubbles, chalk and lots of sunscreen for our weekend together. I’m going to the grocery store tonight to get ice cream cones and Goldfish crackers for our snack after pool time 🙂

So, my weekend is booked- but hopefully, I’ll have a little time to spend with All The Missing Girls by Megan Miranda (It’s a Katie at Doing Dewey’s June #FuturisticFriday selection and I’m pretty intrigued. It’s like a puzzle and I have a few pieces- but waiting on a few more to show up!) Nap time for Miss A will be reading time for T 🙂

On to Literary Friday…… Continue reading →

{Book Spotlight} First Comes Love by Emily Giffin #SRC2016

From the first time I was introduced to Rachel and Darcy, I make a point to re-read them every so often (to me, Emily has her finger on the pulse of the female friendships in those books). Out of all the books by Emily I’ve read, my faves are Rachel and Darcy books- but that might be about to change because First Comes Love has that “something” that I’ve been craving lately (at least in the early pages 🙂 Continue reading →
