Is anyone else surprised that it’s already November? This year is flying by, and with only two more months to fit in books for 2014, I’m going to be reading faster than ever! October was a very dismal reading month for me, not because I didn’t enjoy the books I read, but because I read […]
Welcome to What’s On My Plate, my monthly post where I attempt to organize my review books for the coming month, as I try desperately to read them on time. What usually happens is that I bite off way more than I can chew (although in the next few months I should be able to […]
The year is slipping away from us! I can’t believe it’s already September. Although in my neck of the woods, September is typically one of the hottest months of the year, I’m looking forward to the weather changing soon, I hope:-) On my plate this month I have a few leftover books from August that […]
And July is over, just like that! This year is flying by, right? August in my little town means “back to school” for my kids. Only two more weeks of “summer” for us, unfortunately. But in blogging, August is looking like a terrific month for books. I’ve got a full plate of review books, but […]
Welcome to another thrilling What’s On My Plate post! It’s July already, people! I can’t believe it’s finally San Diego Comic Con month! In a few weeks I’ll be in San Diego, running from book event to book event, and trying to squeeze in some TV and movie panels as well. If you’re going this […]
Can you believe it’s June already?? Summer is here, although truthfully it’s felt like high summer here in Southern California for months now. I seem to have bit off more than I can chew (keeping with the plate metaphor) this month, but I’m going to try to get to as many of these review titles […]
Happy May, everyone! So, April was a very rough month for me. My personal life took off and left this poor blog in the dust. I had several big events for the PTA and my daughter’s choir that I worked on during April, and in the middle of the month I started working full-time. I’m […]
Yeah, so I’m a little late getting this post up. Life is kind of crazy from now until the end of the school year, with my daughter’s choir Pop Show next week, and 8th grade promotion in May. The end of the school year is always busy no matter what grade your kids are in, […]
Welcome to March! This year is just going way too fast, isn’t it? February is always a rough month for me, so I didn’t get through all the reading I wanted to, which doesn’t surprise me. The rest of the school year (through May) is going to go lightning fast, as anyone with school-aged kids […]
Happy February, everyone! Already the year feels as if it’s zooming by. I didn’t get to all the books I wanted to last month, which bums me out a bit. I’m trying to stay on schedule with my review pile as much as I can, but it looks like I’ll have some catch-up to do […]
