this week's reads - 1/5/11

Posted on 10:00 by Unknown
Bed-ridden most nights with a cold — and more than willing to whine about it on Twitter — this week was a prolific one for reading. I also received my first eReader over Christmas and was super excited to put it to use. I guess Mother Nature, Father Time (or whoever gave me a cold to kick-off the New Year) wanted me to have the chance to read.

And so I did.

Here they are, this week's reads: 

Breaking Even by Kathleen Kole


Unscripted by Natalie Aaron and Marla Schwartz (Check back Jan. 15 for my review and Jan. 16 for an interview with the authors as part of their Chick Lit Plus Blog Tour.)


A Bride for Tom by Ruth Ann Nordin


Advertising for Love by Darcee Tana

Next up on my to-read list:
•  Devil's Hand by M.E. Patterson (A Tweep good enough to share his book with me for a review, which will be on the site next week.)
•  Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith (I have put off reading it too long, and I can't stand it. I even painted a pumpkin with this book on it!)
