Sunday Salon

It's been a funky week for me, but I'm starting to feel better finally--just not a lot of energy yet.  Sorry I have not been visiting much this week, I actually took a little break from the computer while sick.

But, I'm Back

I have read / listened to several books this week, but I still need to turn my note taking into some short reviews.

This weeks completed reads:
This week's reading plans:
I don't have any real plans for today, other than to relax on the deck with a book, cook something easy for us, and get myself into Monday work-mode.  I hope you all have a wonderful week.

    I loved The Gendarme. It is different but well worth it.

    TSS: Celebrating India's 64th Independence Day.

    Glad you're feeling a bit better. Relaxing on the deck with a book sounds like a good remedy.

    Oh, that sucks to be sick during the summer!(Or anytime, of course).

    Glad you still got to read. I've been wanting to read The Neighborhood Watch...and Fragile, of course!

    My salon is here:

    Glad you're feeling better, and that is one scary picture! I was excited to see that Tatiana de Rosnay has a new book since I enjoyed Sarah's Key so much, but having read the details I don't think I'm interested. Too many dramas and stereotypical sorts of events. Oh well. I will be interested in what you think.

    4.5 stars to The Gendarme? I've been excited to read it, but you're bumping it up my list!

    Oh My God ... that is a fake photo right? Ostriches don't really have teeth like that, right? Or I just found a new thing to be very very afraid of.

    Hope you feel 100% soon!

    I'm glad you are feeling better and I hopoe you continue to. Hopefully yesterday was the relaxing day you wanted and needed. It's never good to be sick but being sick in summer-time seems more...uncomfortable. I hope you are able to get a lot of rest this week to keep building up your strength to get yourself healthy, healthy!

    Take care, Diane!
