Off The Blog

This week my nights have been consumed by the DNC. Michelle Obama’s speech was my highlight. You can probably guess which side I lean to based on my blog’s color scheme but whether you’re red or blue I think it is important to be informed. On a less intense note, my sister-in-law and I had a book club meeting to discuss The Empathy Exams. My review for it will be posted in August.

    I have First Impressions sitting on my shelf, I won it in a giveaway. It sounds like you didn’t love it though.

  2. You had a good month, ouch for Winter Garden, but I enjoyed it on audio. Isn’t Michelle O great. I’d be on that party if I lived in the states. DT does not get good press here, and rightly so.

  3. I read a lot of books from the library too. Love that I don’t have to buy everything I read! I loved Michele Obama’s speech too. So encouraging and inspiring, regardless of which “side” anybody is on. I’m still watching the DNC. I recorded it and have watched it in bits and pieces. I’m on the last night now. 🙂

    I thought the DNC was run better and was more hopeful, which counts for a lot. Great speeches too. I didn’t watch all of it but I followed the new pretty closely about it. Now we just have to survive the next three months of the campaign! lol

    The Winemakers sounds like a nice read. Have a great week!

    I love Laura Ingalls Wilder’s books. I could read the series over and over and over and still enjoy them.
