Books Read

  • I finished my reread of The Book of Mormon.
  • I also made it to the halfway point in The Old Testament–2 Chronicles 20:17.
  • I read Unwind by Neal Shusterman for book club.
  • I read Neverfall, an Everneath Novella, by Brodi Ashton.
  • I finally finished The Diviners by Libba Bray. I’ll post a review in the next day or two.

Movies Seen in Theater

Notable Posts in December

New Online Discoveries

  • I really wanted to find an online review site for movies, other than Netflix. I discovered SeenTh.at and really like it a lot.

 Notable Personal Events

  • My newest great-niece, Roka Lee Gibbons, was born.
  • I watched two documentaries on becoming healthy–Vegucated and Hungry for Change. They made quite the impact on me and I plan to make some changes with my eating habits. I’ll post about that soon.

Reading Plans for January 2013

  • I want to reread City of Fallen Angels.
  • I want to finally read City of Lost Souls.
  • I hope to read Reached.
  • I’m still trying to decide if I want to read the book for book club–The History of Love by Nicole Krauss.
  • The Casual Vacancy just came available at the library. I want to give it a go, even with everything (good and bad) I’ve heard about it. Hopefully, I’ll enjoy it, but if I don’t, at least I gave it a try.

    Ooh! I would love to hear what you think of The Casual Vacancy! I haven’t read it yet because, like you, I’ve heard good and bad, and I didn’t want to buy it if it isn’t worth it. I’ll let you be the guinea pig :D

      Ha! I don’t mind being the guinea pig. I like to make up my own mind about things instead of going off of what people tell me. So, I don’t mind trying to read it at least. ;)
