Life is rushing head-long into summer! I am swimming at least 2 times per week (last Saturday I fell asleep at the pool – nice little sunburn) and eating lighter and healthier. My kids are winding down in their book clubs – several have finished and are now on to projects – and are chomping at the bit to get out of school.

A lot of romance in the air just in time for summer!
I actually bought a book this past week. OK, actually, two books. The Burgess Boys and Reading in the Wild: The Book Whisperer’s Keys to Cultivating Lifelong Reading Habits.
AWESOME Sunday post! WOW tons of new reads for you! Also I think it’s really cool that you add other people’s posts and giveaways!

Hey Lisa – thanks! Last year I got started, and this year I want to get off the ground and showcase some other great places to be keeping up with. It’s nice, like a one-stop shop for the week. 🙂
Thanks for stopping in. See you again!
Thanks for including us again! Love what you are doing here! 🙂
You are so welcome, Renee!
