Wine on Wednesday

Welcome to the first Wine on Wednesday of 2011! This week we'll be tasting a red wine from Mendocino County. Only $4.99 at Trader Joes...I like the sound of that! Go grab yourself a bottle and let me know what you think.

Book 3 ~ Water for Elephants

Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I loved this book! Water for Elephants is a beautiful story for everyone to enjoy. From an elephant stealing lemonade to a prohibition raid, every moment was amusing. Jacob Jankowski quickly became one of my favorite characters in fiction today. I want to read this book over and over again.

Book 2 ~ The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


The Hunger Games wasn't just a goodread, it was an experience. At times I found that my heart was racing and my stomache in knots of anticipation. This book had it all...love, action, adventure, secrets, and so much more.

Book 1 ~ Sarah's Key

Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Sarah's Key is a good read, but a very depressing one. Very well written and easy to follow, however, this book filled with things that you wish you could forget.

25 books in 2011

Well, it's that time of year again. Time to start fresh, make goals for the year ahead, and promise ourselves that this is the year I will finally (instert personal goal that you can't seem to accomplish here). I have high hopes for 2011, along with a very long to-do list. Among the many goals that I have set for this year, I would like to read 25 books...at least!
