Nope.

Sorry, folks, I have nothing for you this week. I didn't even realize that my last post was TWO weeks ago instead of one. Yes, that's how life has been.

I'm off my reading game, and I can't even tell you the last time I sat down long enough to watch something on television...that I didn't fall asleep within thirty minutes. 

Yes, I am reading. I'm reading a class novel with my sixth graders (Touching Spirit Bear), and I am reading a book with my boys' book club (Woods Runner), and I did manage to find a half-finished novel I lost during the move,...and I finished it (The Silent Wife). And I'm sure I'll write about them eventually. Just not tonight.

So...

I finally have my new library set up. And, today, I put a TBR short-stack by my reading couch. I will hit the reset button on my "new normal" on Tuesday. Why Tuesday? Well, that's a story for next Sunday. (By then, I'm sure it'll be okay to tell it.)

Happy reading...

What's on YOUR Bookcase?

"A library represents the mind of its collector, his  
fancies and foibles, his strength and weakness, his  
prejudices and preferences. Particularly is this the 
case if, to the character of a collector, he adds -- or 
tries to add -- the qualities of a student who wishes to 
know the books and the lives of the men who wrote 
them. The friendships of his life, the phases of his 
growth, the vagaries of his mind, all are represented."

~ William Osler
