Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? We are on vacation and will be traveling for the next 9 days. We are starting in Indianapolis for a quick visit with some of my family. Then we will go to Illinois, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. We are excited, we haven't been to these three states before. Have a wonderful weekend!

I added 9 books to my Goodreads shelf this week, but I took 7 off!!!!
I finished 5 books this week, one I had been reading for several weeks. I still need
to post the review for 2 of them. One was a reread of an audio book that we listened to in the car yesterday so I won't be reviewing it again.
I am also linking up with the Sunday Post. The Sunday Post is a blog news meme hosted at Caffeinated Reviewer. I will also be joining Deb at Readerbuzz for the Sunday Salon.
Enjoy your holiday! It sounds amazing.

Thank you!
DeleteYour road trip sounds great -- I hope you write about it for a future Sunday Salon! I'm from the Midwest, so I know there are interesting things here despite the view of people from the East.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Thanks Mae, I will consider that, or at least link to where I write it!
DeleteDrive save and enjoy your trip....it's always nice to visit somewhere new! It's a good idea to include how many books were added to your TBR any given week - I think I'll borrow that idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks Terrie, the end of day 2 and I am exhausted, LOL!
DeleteEnjoy your travels, Cindy. I took my daughter to a One Direction concert in Indianapolis a few years back, it's a beautiful city.
ReplyDeleteWendy, I grew up in Indianapolis (until I was 12), and visit a few times a year, we're familiar with that city, but not a whole lot else in Indiana.
DeleteHave a great trip! I like Indianapolis, it's a fun city. :)
ReplyDeleteGreg, it is. I grew up here until I was 12.
DeleteHope you have a great trip.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mark!
DeleteHave a wonderful vacation Cindy! We lived in Wisconsin for six years! Beautiful state!!
ReplyDeleteSusan, I should have asked you what we should see, LOL!
DeleteWhat a wonderful trip you have planned. I am like you, adding books to Goodreads then taking a few off. Sometimes i check the books out of the library and they don't appeal so....DNF.
ReplyDeleteTina, yep. I started going through and looking at ones I added and I was like, I am never going to read that.
DeleteEnjoy your trip! I'm so ready for my very short trip to Dallas next month for a book convention. I need to read Emma St. Clair one of these days. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteLisa Loves Literature
Lisa, a book convention sounds wonderful!!! Something to look forward to for sure, I have two weekend trips scheduled next month.
DeleteI hope you enjoy your vacation. I've been to Minnesota once. I went for work, but I had a chance to go to the Mall of America and it was awesome. If you get the chance, you should go.

Jenni, thanks for the recommendation but no time this trip, sadly.
DeleteHeyyyy I was born in Indianapolis! Enjoy your vacation and your travels!!!
ReplyDeleteI was born in KY but moved here when to Indy when I was a baby and lived there until I was 12.
DeleteIt sounds like you are having a wonderful trip. Our son and daughter-in-law live in Illinois, so we've been there many times, but we've never been in Minnesota or Wisconsin or Indiana. Chicago is an amazing city.
ReplyDeleteI think adding 9 books and taking 7 off is excellent!
Deb, we didn't have the mental capacity for Chicago so we avoided it. We were not really sure what to do there either.
DeleteHave a good road trip. And happy reading.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteVicki, not something we have ever done before. It's been fun so far.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! I am from Minnesota and would love to be back there for good (once my daughter is 18, I am moving home!). It's a beautiful place and I love it so much. I hope you enjoy your trip!
ReplyDeleteSarah, we only spent one night in Minnesota and I wish we had more time!! We have been in Wisconsin for 3 days and I am wishing we had more time to spend here too. They are beautiful/interesting states.
