Well, this weekend was just amazing. Yesterday, I was lucky enough to hang out with a lot of wonderful book bloggers at the DC National Book Festival! (And yes, seeing the authors was fun too.) I promise I will do a full, in-depth post (with pictures!) on that later in the week.
I’ve been finding myself with less time to read and blog lately because I have had a lot of stuff going on – in a good way! Hopefully this means that my BBAW goal of a better blog-life balance is coming to pass. I’m well on my way to my goal of reading 400 books this year, so I don’t feel that pressure to read that I used to.
This week, I announced that I was signing up for my Clear Off Your Shelves Challenge – not really a surprise, right? I also participated in Wordless Wednesdays and my Thursday Tunes for the week was The Young Victoria soundtrack.
If you want more information about the Clear Off Your Shelves Challenge, here is the details post, which has a link to the sign-up post!

I really must read Goldengrove! Look forward to some of the reviews for other books you have read this week, actually.
And 400 books! Wow! I am in the 300 range now, so I will read more than 300 books... But, I don't know if I can make 400. I will make it my goal for next year maybe? How do you review everything you read? I can't seem to do it, that's for sure!
Wow...400 books? That is really fantastic! I admire you for all of the reading you do and it inspires me to want to find more time to read.
I look forward to reading all about the festival. I am glad you had such a great time. :-)
400 hundred books!!! That is really something and you find the time to review them too. Do you sleep?
Looking forward to hearing all about you experience at the Festival, the tweets made it sound like you were having a great time. It was a fun day, shame about the rain.
If I'd been up there, the other bloggers would have been the highlight of the weekend, I'm sure. I can't wait to read all about it.
It's fun to meet bloggers. I hope to meet you someday :)
Out of the books you read, I managed to read Goldengrove too. I really liked it.It was sort of complex and moody. My kind of book.
400??!! How in the world do you do it!?? I am going to just barely make my goal of 100 if I try really hard. Congrats though!!
I think the bloggers would have been the highlight for me too! I'm looking forward to the in depth post this week. Good luck with keeping your life and blog balanced!
I do hope you like the moonstone. i look forward to your review.
i've not read the myth of bloody mary, so i really look forward to that one!
I look forward to hearing more about the festival! You're so lucky to have seen Junot Díaz.
