Happy Sunday everyone! This was a very busy, but very productive week for me. It’s always nice to feel like you’ve accomplished a lot! Next week will be even busier - I have a friend coming into town towards the end of the week, and then I’m heading out of town for the weekend. I’ve gone almost a month without traveling, and it has felt really good. It’s great to just be at home for an extended period of time - I’d forgotten that feeling over the past few months.
I’m pleased to announce that one of my new monthly columns at SheKnows Book Lounge has gone up. It’s called Fiction vs. Non-Fiction: A Mash-Up, and in it I take popular fiction reads and recommend a non-fiction read to go along with them. It’s up to you to decide which is better, or even more, to give yourself the opportunity for further reading on a topic you’ve enjoyed. I’m very excited about it. I also picked the Red Hot Book of the Week for the SheKnows Book Lounge, The Crown by Nancy Bilyeau, and talked about The Pub Across the Pond by Mary Carter as a Must-Read.
Besides reviews, the blog was mostly quiet this week. I did post a Wordless Wednesday: New Zealand Edition picture of Mount Cook.

Nice set of books! I plan to read Outside the Lines soon. I am curious about Tina's Mouth. Enjoy!
I think that is an awesome feature...I'm going to have to go check it out. And yay for productive weeks! I am on top of the world when I have one of those, which isn't often. Have a great next weekend off!
I know what you mean - I'm hoping to stay home for a few weeks too.
So excited about your new features! I am going to go check them out right now, and I hope that you have a great week ahead with your friend!
The books reviewed this week all look so very good. Thank you for the links. Going to check them out.
Great feature, enjoyed reading it. I`ve read both the Jodi Picoult and Dave Cull books, I thought at the time that both books did a great job but I think I`d go for Columbine if I had to choose and I`m going to do the Catherine the great Fiction/Non Fiction reads as I love Russian History.
Oops, his name is actually Dave Cullen.
I love your recommendations on the Fiction vs non-fiction article. I don't read a lot of non-fiction, but since I have read some of the fictional reccos, I do think I should give the non-fictional ones a try. I especially want to read Columbine
