Sounds like I should give them a try and put the first book on hold. I haven't been doing very good with my exercising goals if I am being honest. I just have to take my time and really get back to exercising on a regular basis. It is easier said than done!<br /><br />Suko- Nine Coaches Waiting was a really great read! I am super eager to read more by this author now.<br /><br />Sarah- I absolutely adore the Amelia Peabody series and I am only three books in. Such fun reads and each one makes me laugh at Amelia's antics. This is fast becoming one of my very favorite mystery series!<br /><br />Trish- My kids LOVED Disney! It was lots of fun but by the end I was more than ready to come home. There is just only so much that you can take of crowds and lines before it is too much. I would love to take them back there one more time when they are older but we will see. This was definitely a vacation that I will never forget!!<br /><br />Lark- Which of Stewart's books are your favorite? I have been trying to figure out which of her books to try next so any help that you can give me would be welcome :) There are so many older gothic writers out there that I want to try. But it isn't always easy to get my hands on their books since many of them are out of print. Oh well, I can usually find enough at my local used bookstore!samantha.1020https://www.blogger.com/profile/04124614710493747821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4047824216061619284.post-88147666950649656802014-07-08T15:51:46.214-07:002014-07-08T15:51:46.214-07:00Nine Coaches Waiting is wonderful, as are many of ...Nine Coaches Waiting is wonderful, as are many of Stewart's other romantic-suspense books. Some of her later books are less suspenseful, more novel-ish (I'm thinking Thornyhold and The Stormy Petrel in particular.) What a treat to be discovering Stewart for the first time! She's one of my favorites, ever since I discovered (and devoured) my mother's stack of them in high school.Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08639732368395025578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4047824216061619284.post-53964852529604920472014-07-07T14:12:47.396-07:002014-07-07T14:12:47.396-07:00Your kids are just the cutest!!

AND WE ARE HALFWAY THROUGH THE YEAR OMG. :) <br /><br />30 Day Shred, huh? I did it on Friday and am now pretty sure. It's those push-ups. They kill me! Good luck! If I can do it twice in a week it's a miracle.Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4047824216061619284.post-4778831366183471642014-07-04T08:32:14.442-07:002014-07-04T08:32:14.442-07:00June did fly by!

I'll have to look for that one.<br /><br />We took a couple months off from soccer and need to see about getting Mouse back into it. She misses it, although I'm sure she will miss being able to sleep in once we start it back up again. Right now she's taking swim lessons and loving it. <br /><br />I've gotten back into exercising regularly. I hate having to get up even earlier than I already do, but it's the only time I can fit it in with any consistency. I'm not doing anything as ambitious as you or most everyone else I see posting about exercise online, but I have a long way to go before I reach that point. I'm just happy with what I am able to do--and that I am actually doing it.<br /><br />I really want to read The Last Policeman trilogy by Ben Winters this month. Other than that, I have nothing specific I plan to read. I have a lot of NetGalley books that I should be reading though. :-)<br /><br />Have a great rest of the week! And a wonderful July!Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.com
