My April "intimates" shop

Once again, I did my own intimates shop to replace my Wantable subscription.  This time I spent $36 CAN and got a REALLY cozy night shirt, coordinating fuzzy socks, a couple of pairs of undies and a good quality bra.


I can't see myself needing to keep at this every month!!!



March reading

Thanks to a couple of weekends away, some "inside" weather, and kid's activities on a hiatus for a bit, I was able to read quite a few more books than typical this month.


I read One Day and liked the writing style, but hating the ending so I wanted to give another one by him a shot.  This one I rated 3.5/5

I think I liked this one for the majority of the book, but then close to the end the style of the book changed and I didn't like it as much anymore so only rated it 3/5


I think this is the wrong title for this book.  I did enjoy it anyway - 3.5/5


Yes, I kind of knew what was going to happen, but it was still a fun read with enough 'meat' to not make it too fluffy.  Rated it 4/5


This was a big book but a quick, enjoyable read.  Rated it 4/5


I always love Sarah Addison Allen and this one didn't let me down. 4/5


Another good read 4/5 (it takes a lot for me to rate something 5 stars)


This book had such great reviews, but it wasn't for me at all.  Rated it 2/5 since I did like 1 of the short stories.


I like Karen White and enjoyed this one.  4/5


What can I say - I like the story but I'm pretty simple so had a bit of trouble following the language at times.  Overall 3.5/5
