I've been behind the last few months and starting this month I'm all about catching up. I've a few books for review this week as well as a couple of challenge books. 


Other Mandy Stuff. 



I spent the last several weeks moving so my reading and blogging has been limited. I've gotten so behind on my review pile and I've missed my favorite posts. Starting today will be better. I've missed reading and blogging so much. 

We are moved at last on base from our little apartment. It's a really cute three bedroom with a awesome backyard which I plan to garden in. The house has giving us so much room. Plus I don't need to worry about security I can leave my door unlocked. Love it!


 Moving allowed up to get a dog which I've been dying forever to have. I couldn't find a giant malamute breeder but I found a opps litter of Husky/Malamutes. So we had to get a puppy. His daddy is over 100lbs at a year so I hope he's big. I also picked out a great name "Grimm" like the T.V. Show. 

Since I've been mostly MIA this week I don't really know what's going on around the Blogosphere. I'm still not caught up on my emails I've had over 900 this week. I follow a lot of blogs and have to read each one. So it's taking a while to catch up. 


 Book Haul this week:



Not a whole lot since I've not been online much but I did receive a few in the mail.
