Sheila at Book Journey hosts this weekly event where we celebrate what we are reading for the week as well as books completed the previous week.
Today my husband and I celebrate 30 years of marriage. We had a major storm come through a couple of hours before the ceremony, and then the sun came out with a rainbow! Early this morning we took a walk together and got caught in a downpour and were drenched, we laughed all the way home!! It has been a wonderful journey and I hope for 30 more years together.
Books Read:
Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest by Stiegg Larsson (loved this, but sad to see the series end)

Enjoyed your review of Voyager. Happy listening!
Wasn't Seaside Letters a great read? I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Have a great reading week!
Oh, so hornet's nest is the last one...does that mean soon there will be a collection out for sale? I'd love to just buy them in bulk. :)
Check out my post, and feel free to enter my contest.
If you ever decide to try Scandinavian crime fiction again now that you've finished Larsson's books, let me know! There are some wonderful novels out there.
You really got a lot of reading done last week! I'm looking for beach reads - I'll have to take a look at Seaside Letters. Have fun with your reading this week. And congrats on the anniversary!
I am yet to read the third Stieg Larsson book!
Mondays: Whereabouts/Musings/Mailbox
Happy 30th Anniversary! Quite a wonderful accomplishment.

Enjoy your books :)
Congratulations!! We celebrated our 27th this year.
I too will be away this weekend at a basketball tournament. Our youngest will be a senior in September, I don't know what I'll do next year without any high school sports :(

Happy Anniversary.
I loved the Steig Larsson books too.
30 years! Congratulations - sounds like you two are still having fun - that is awesome :D
Hope you enjoy your time this next week and find a little time to read or audio!
I am glad that you enjoyed Hornet's Nest -- it is next on my list!
What basketball tournament, Nise'? And what level. And why? And what will you be doing? And...and...
Sorry, just soooo curious since my son and I just got back from a tournament in Chicago (he's a junior in h.s.) and will be at another one in Kansas City in two weeks.
Do tell! I've subscribed to comments :)
