Weekly Update #127


Welcome to my Weekly Update where I post my blog's schedule for the week! I'm linking up to The Sunday Post, hosted by Kimba @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer, as well as to Tynga's Reviews and Talk Supe for showcasing the books I added to my shelves or Kindle this week.

My husband semi-surprised me (had to spill the beans to be sure my schedule would be open) with a weekend trip without our four children, just me and him. We went to a movie, to dinner, stayed at a hotel, and went on a rigorous fun hike in hot nice high 90 temps. ;) No, really it was a challenge and I drank a ton of water so I wouldn't die of heat stroke, but it was fun and the whole weekend was so great for us. The kids also loved being at their grandparents and be spoiled rotten. Now it's back to the real world and school starting for my kids in a few days. Eeek! I'm not ready, but we'll get there.

Here's what to expect this week:

I'm reviewing this sweet, inspirational children's book, I Can Pray Every Day by Catherine Christensen and Corey Egbert.
I Can Pray Every Day

I'll be a tour stop for Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Beth K. Vogt. I've been reading this one over the weekend and loving it!
Crazy Little Thing Called Love (Destination Wedding #1)

I'll be reviewing Portrait of Lies by Clair M. Poulson. I'm looking forward to a little suspense...
Portrait of Lies

As usual, I'll be posting for Waiting on Wednesday. I'll also be a tour stop for Marrying Christopher by Michele Paige Holmes.
Marrying Christopher (A Hearthfire Romance)

I'll be posting a review of NA fantasy Spindle by W.R. Gingell.

I'm planning on reviewing What You Left Behind by Jessica Verdi. It was fun to have Jessica stop by my blog last week.

I'll be a tour stop for Call to Arms: Nations Fall by Randy Lindsay and posting a review of Understanding Your Endowment by Cory Jensen.
