What's On Your Nightstand?

*Be sure and go here to enter my Yoplait Gift Bag Giveaway*




I haven't been able to spend much time reading, so, last month, I had a short list of "to be read" books. Out of my list of three books, I completed only one. But, I did end up reading another book at the last minute. Here's what I read in February:

Cupid and Diana - Quick and easy read, I enjoyed it, but, wouldn't say it was great.

The Lost Duke of Wyndham - I loved this one! It's the same story as told in Julia Quinn's other book "Mr. Cavendish, I Presume", only it's told from another perspective. I actually went back and read the "Mr. Cavendish" book again, at the same time as this. It was fun to read each book together, chapter by chapter, getting the same story but told from different characters' point of views.

Here's what I hope to read now-March (another short list):

The Flat Belly Diet Book - I just started this one last night. Sounds very interesting and I think I might give this diet a try.

The Secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever - I've loved the other two Julia Quinn books that I've read, so I'm looking forward to this one (although it did not get very good reviews on Amazon)

Coraline - this movie is now out in 3D, would love to read it with the kids and then go see it at the theater.

The Flat Belly Diet...I need to know if this one will work. If you try it, post about it ...please...

Coraline is a popular book on lists right now. The movie looks good.

I could use the flat belly but I'm not sure about the diet part? :-)

If you see the movie and read the book, let me know if you want to do a Books on Screen for 5M4B. I've been intrigued.

Great list. I suppose everyone is reading Coraline because the movie is coming out. I think I'll pick it up for my son and see if he's interested. Happy Reading! BTW, I LOVE your blog design!

I havent had a chance to catch up on my reading too, thus the reason why I only listed two books in my list. :P Happy reading.
