I've loved this series so far, so when this came across my desk today, I had to bring it home!
Many thanks to Macmillan and Little Brown for the review copies!
The weekly nutshell:
{Tuesday} Waiting on Wednesday: Rook
{Thursday} Review: Chasing Power
I feel like such a Halloween failure! I'm usually the first on the blog to have my house decorated, but we've all been so busy lately that we just got them up yesterday! Still I love them, I have my circle of ghosts and my "fresh" graves all ready to greet trick or treaters. :) The leaves are falling fast and the weather is finally starting to drop into the 70s. Hurrah! Next week I'm headed to another trade show, so this week will be all about sorting books out for giveaways and starting to put them aside for local donations and Toys for Tots. Always kind of fun to go through everything and get some space cleared. :)
Tomorrow I'm taking my first stab at making french macarons. We visited Thomas Keller's Bouchon bakery last week and I've become obsessed with them. I know they won't be nearly as good---their recipe is sheer culinary genius---but I'll take a crack at it and hope for the best! I've heard it's pretty tricky to get them right!
Finished Cure for Dreaming this week. Cat Winters blew me away with this one. Gave me a bit of book hangover, but I'm starting and enjoying They All Fall Down so far!
