The Best Kind of Weekend

So I started this blog to write more about the reading of books as opposed to just giving reviews, but this weekend was a perfect storm and I didn't stop to write because I was too busy reading!

First of all, Chris was home, and since he was gone all last week Darren was not interested in me at all so I curled up and read while they played.  I do have to wonder what Chris thinks I do all day!  He must think the poor child is left to fend for himself, not true though.

Second, I started a great book and just finished it.  The Darkest Room by Johan Theorin is a mystery but it is also a very creepy ghost story with lots of twists that you never see coming but that are really smart, and a totally satisfying ending, which I have been missing lately.  I know I read a recommendation for this book but I can't remember where and I really wish I could.  I am positive it had something to do with Stieg Larssen but I just can't remember, but whoever wrote it was right - this was so good!

Third, it is raining, so no reason not to love every minute of my time on the couch!

Like I said, a perfect storm.  Great company, great page-turning book, and the warmth of our home.  Lucky lady to say the least.
