Spring has sprung and left the building....

Edited:June 23rd
Well, Summer has finally arrived, weather wise, here in the northwest, after a miserable spring. Today we finally had temps reach into the upper 70's with a slight marine breeze--it was quite perfect.
The Spring Reading Thing has finished and I think, considering the crazy Spring we had with tons of family activities, I did pretty well! I finished 11 out of 15 books, and two of those 4 not finished were just graphic novels. I am relishing the thought of having the Maise Dobbs book to read as a summer read.

1. My favorite book of the Spring: Tallgrass by Sandra Dallas. I love Dallas's writing style and all the historical research she puts into her stories. I always feel like I just step right into the story.
2. My most memorable book: a tie between both of the Harry Potter books. I have so enjoyed them and am looking forward to reading the rest of the series. Rowling has a great imagination!
3. Least favorite: Going Coastal. It wasn't that it was a bad read, per se, it was just a little too predictable and chick-litty. It did meet a need for something lighter after reading something heavy before it.

Thanks Katrina for hosting a great challenge--one I look forward to each year!

Good-bye Winter, and Hello Spring....
