The Sunday Salon - April in Review

Good morning Saloners! And a Happy Mother's Day to all of those mothers out there as well. I've been spending a lazy morning drinking coffee while the kiddos play on the floor in the living room. I love waking up this way! But somehow it has come to my attention that today is already May 8th. How has that happened??? I find myself behind in sharing my April reads and I'm behind in reviews as well. Go figure :)




I still need to share my thoughts on both of these reads which hopefully I will find time to do this week. I loved both of them for very different reasons and am excited to read more by these authors. I'm currently in the midst of The White Devil by Justin Evans. It has a very weird and creepy atmosphere to it, and I find myself constantly wondering what will happen next. I'm hoping to finish it up sometime early this week. I'm also still working on Cinderella Ate My Daughter by Peggy Orenstein. I'm a slower reader when it comes to nonfiction but I'm still plugging away at this book. I need to get going though as I believe it is due at the library very soon and I'm not even half way through. And then there are all of the books that I want to read next....don't even get me started on those. Did you see my latest library loot?? I'm finding it kind of overwhelming right now :) But on to the books I finished in April. I read the following:

1. Surrender The Dark by L.A. Banks
2. Affinity by Sarah Waters
3. Agatha Raisin and the Potted Gardener by M.C. Beaton
4. Wither by Lauren DeStefano
5. Demon's Are a Girl's Best Friend by Linda Wisdom
6. Hush by Cherry Adair

April was a much better reading month for me compared to March although I still didn't get everything accomplished that I wanted to. Maybe this month but I like to try and keep it low key around here so who knows?? I do know that there are a TON of books that I want to read RIGHT NOW! Seriously, how to find the time to read them all? Anyways, I thought I would leave you this lovely morning with my latest attempt to get all three kiddos in the same picture, looking at the camera at the same time :) And for the record it hasn't been going very well. LOL!


This was at an indoor waterpark and boy did we have fun! Have a great Sunday and Mother's Day everyone!
