Good Monday morning! I hope you had a fabulous week. After two weeks of just going to school one day, my kids finally went to school for almost a whole week. They had a delay on Friday but at least they went eventually. And now, Spring has finally arrived in North Carolina. The 10-day forecast looks wonderful, so M and I got outside yesterday and planted our carrots and onions. Hopefully we'll be able to plant the rest within a few weeks.
I only managed one post last week. I'm not really sure what happened, but somehow I never got around to writing more than that. This week, I have several things planned so you'll see a lot more of me!
Book Review: Relish: My Life in the Kitchen by Lucy Knisley
I have been reading The Daughter: A Novel
C is reading The War of the Worlds
What are you reading this week? It's Monday! is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey, so hop over there if you'd like to see what others are reading too. You can also check out the younger version of It's Monday!
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on The Daughter, I've read some good reviews for it. I loved A. J. Fikry, one of my favorite books last year.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that about A.J. Fikry. I'm looking forward to starting it - hopefully tonight!
DeleteI hear you - my son only went to school 2 days last week! We are still covered with snow here from last week's storm, but it went up to 50 today (!) so hopefully, we will be thinking spring by the end of the week.
ReplyDeleteI just bought The Storied Life of AJ Fikry for my friend for her birthday. I'd heard it was a very uplifting novel which is right up her alley - hope you like it!

I'm glad to hear that about AJ Fikry. I also heard it was a quick read, which is what I need right about now! I had to get the large print version because that's all that was available at the library, so I figure it will be even easier to read, even when I'm tired!
DeleteThe War of the Worlds! Fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd enjoy Fikry. It's very charming.
Yes! I was excited to hear he decided to read that. He read The Time Machine for school and the book we have includes three other stories by H.G. Wells.
