Hi Michelle! Stopping over at your blog after visiting Melanie's Musings. I was hooked in by another pumpkin spice latte enthusiast. Though I make myself wait till October to indulge. I've got a 3yo and 9mo at home, so I'm also right there with you about finding time and balance. Love the book blogging community, so I make it happen and call it my "me time"!
Ain't that the truth? We have a regular Weds morning playgroup, and I treat myself to a coffee from the drive-thru on our way in every week. And then look forward to it again for another 7 days :)
CHALK is great! And sounds like the perfect tie-in! What did your students think? I'm adding STELLA to my TBR list. Thanks!
I'm with you on The Hunger Games. The whole premise is a little...disturbing. But the books are so fabulously written, it's hard not to get sucked in. I loved 1 and 2, 3 was not as good but still...Collins has a way with her words.
