Me on This Week's Book Week (68)

This Week's Book Week is rather similar to Stacking the Shelves hosted by Tynga's Reviews only with far more rambling and a less witty title. ;)

There was the weirdest thunderstorm here Thursday afternoon/evening. It started around 3:30 and was just thunder. Then lightning struck nearby. We think nearby because the crack of it made us think something in the backyard has exploded. Then the rain started and it kept thundering until about 7:30. It was very bizarre, thunderstorms never last that long out here. We never lost power or anything, which was nice.

General public tickets for the Vancouver Writers Fest go on sale on Monday. I'm crossing my fingers that I'll be able to get tickets to the events I want to go to. I think I might go to 2, call it my birthday present to myself. :)

Three reviews a week for the rest of the month! Reviews this week will feature The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater (Monday), The Clockwork Scarab by Colleen Gleason (Wednesday), and a special blog tour posting for Thornhill by Kathleen Peacock (Friday). :)
