First of all, my giveaway for Room for Love by Andrea Meyer ends Monday at 11:59 P.M, so don't forget to enter the giveaway! [review][entry page]

I'm in Tampa, Florida right now visiting my parents, which has been a lot of fun. I've also gotten the chance to get some reading done, and I'm excited to say that I finally finished The Enchantress of Florence by Salman Rushdie, which I've been trying to get through for a few weeks now. I did enjoy it and I'll be posting my review early next week, so stay tuned!

Books I've Read This Week:











The Secret Bride: In The Court of Henry VIII - Diane Haeger [review]




The Writing Class - Jincy Willett [review]


The Smart One and the Pretty One - Claire LaZebnik [review]




The Enchantress of Florence: A Novel - Salman Rushdie [review to come]

Other Reviews Posted This Week:

I'm about to start the book Falling Under by Danielle Younge-Ullman.



I haven't started it yet, but I've had the ARC lying around for awhile, and it's about time I get to it! Danielle is a member of the 2008 Debutante Ball, so I have high expectations for this one.

That's a wrap-up of my week! What are you reading right now?

"The Writing Class" looked really good. I'd love to read that one. I also got in "Falling-Under" which I really want to start reading now!

My partner was reading Funny in Farsi this weekend and laughing out loud frequently (a rarity for her when reading!); she moved right on to Laughing Without an Accent. Now those will be added to my TBR pile!

You sure got a lot of reading done this week-awesome. I'm reading Half of a Yellow Sun and really enjoying it. I didn't get near as much reading done as you did though.

Wow, you got a lot of reading done! I just finished MUDBOUND by Hillary Jordan this week. It was very good. I'll be posting my review this week. Now I'm reading OUT STEALING HORSES by Per Petterson.
