Thankfully Reading Weekend

I was planning on getting some serious reading done and then saw this cool weekend reading event on my google reader! So, I'm officially partaking in the Thankfully Reading Weekend.

Thanksgiving was great yesterday. We blew off the big huge family get-together and my parents invited my in-laws over and my uncle and we had a smaller 10 person Thanksgiving. It was great and I can't wait to host Christmas Eve at my new apartment with the same people.

Hopefully between reading sessions I'll find time to start working on Christmas decorations. :-D

I'm starting out this reading weekend with The Dark Divine by Bree Despain. I'm about 250 pages in, so I should finish it by mid-afternoon. After I finish, I plan to read the following this weekend:

The Pillowbook of Lotus Lowenstein by Libby Schmais
Ballads of Suburbia by Stephanie Kuehnert
Sea Glass by Maria V. Snyder
Saving Francesca by Melina Marchetta (audiobook)
Some short Capstone books
Beautiful Dead by Eden Maguire
The Espressologist by Kristina Springer
The Geek Girl's Guide to Cheerleading by Charity Tahmaseb and Darcy Vance
Hate List by Jennifer Brown

Alright, I've got a bunch of stuff to do this weekend too, so we'll see what I get to... I'm really excited to get a ton of reading done as well though!

  2. I am glad you had such a nice Thanksgiving yesterday. Mine was nice and quiet--just my husband and I. We went out for dinner--so nice not having to cook (something I'm not fond of doing) or clean up!

    Looks like you're all set for this weekend! I hope you enjoy your books.

    You have a nice reading list going, but remember: no stress.
