Here is what happened with me this week
Ok, it has been a slow week reading wise (I feel like I have been saying that a whole lot this summer, but it is true :-()
We celebrated my son’s 15th birthday, then the next day I met my husband in Boston for a few days.
I went to Paul Revere’s house, stood on the site of the Boston Massacre, and had tons of yummy food.
We went to Dergins Park, The Green Dragon (where the Sons of Liberty planned the Boston Tea Party), and Union Oyster House, which is the oldest continually run restaurant in the country!
Get why there wasn’t that much reading time?
I did get to read on the plane, despite the tiny woman next to constantly hitting me with her elbow.
I finished
The Girl You Left Behind
by Jojo Moyes
(hoping to get a review posted later today or by wednesday the latest.
I am currently reading-
My Notorious Life
by Kate Manning

My It’s Monday, What Are You Reading
Great to hear about your Boston trip! Sounds like you had a lot of fun.
I love Boston- hubby went to BC, but I have only been there once before!
I would love to visit Boston. Fun and educational! I’m currently reading Rot and Ruin (zombie Monday).
I hope to someday make it to Boston…sounds like you had a great time! Some very interesting reads you’ve got on your plate too! Happy Reading!

Reading on the plane is always interesting. On my last trip, I was reading The History of Love on the plane.
I hope you have a great week and enjoy Cartwheel!
THANKS for stopping by my blog earlier.

Great Boston pics. I would love to go back. Have a great reading week.
Thanks-you too!
Sounds like a great trip! I loved My Notorious Life – I hope you are enjoying it!
Thanks for stopping by earlier!
How is My Notorious Life so far? Glad you enjoyed your Boston trip and happy belated birthday to your son 🙂
It’s good- a little hard to get used to the way it is written though.
Let’s see…
I’m probably going to finish Graham Greene’s The Heart of the Matter today. I’m also reading Infinite Jest (slowly but surely) for the second time.
Lined up I have Cycle of the Werewolf for my read-all-of-Stephen-King project, and High Wizardry by Diane Duane.
Wow- lots of great reading going on for you! Have a good week.
Happy birthday to your son! I have a 15 year old boy too. 😉
Cartwheel was great, and I really enjoyed The Girl You Left Behind. You have excellent taste 😉
I liked The Girl You Left Behind- 15 yr olds are tough!
Happy birthday to your son! Sounds like a fun trip to Boston. Looking forward to your review of The Girl You Left Behind. And I love the cover of Cartwheel! Happy reading.
