Thanks, Anna – I hope you have a great week, too.
Just finished the book you sent me Friday (read it while Em was getting her hair cut/colored). Now I am starting One Amazing Thing (I also won an ARC from Library Thing)… but very little time to read these days, trying to get house in order!!

Woohoo for WAITING FOR COLUMBUS! I get so excited every time I see someone else picking up this fantastic book. Can’t wait to hear what you think about it.

Rebecca – the author/publisher really should be giving you some sort of cut!
I just got Waiting for Columbus from my library. It’s definitely something I would not have picked up on my own, but after reading some reviews on it, especially Fizzy Thoughts’, I knew I should give it a go.

Stephanie – I’ve read so many great reviews of that one – I just had to have it!
Those all look good. I really want to read Waiting for Columbus too.

Kathy – so many books, so little time….
One Amazing Thing has been given a huge marketing budget I guess as I & many, many other bloggers have received this terrific book.
Enjoy your books!

Vasilly – I know – they are gorgeous! My copy of One Amazing Thing is an ARC, though, so it doesn’t have that beautiful cover.
I haven’t read any of these, but they all look so good! Happy Reading

Lots of great books here Carrie. I also have an ARC of One Amazing Thing. Hope it’s good. I can’t wait to read Waiting for Columbus. It’s on my wish list for now. I’d better get reading my essays. It looks like you’re off to a good start!
