Musing Mondays (Feb.6)

February 6, 2012

 This week’s musing asks…

Did you do any reading in lieu of watching the football game, yesterday, or were you foregoing reading to watch the game? If you read a book (or books) what did you choose?

I’m not into football. Can’t stand it, actually. So, I would have liked to read, instead. But, since hubby was going to a friends’ house for the game, and since all of the other wives were going along to this party, I was asked to go, too. And, I did. But, I got away early, and got to read for a bit before bed. ;)

I am working on reading “Matched” by Ally Condie, and it’s really good. I’m enjoying it. I’ve also been digging into “The Experience Effect” by Jim Joseph.

 

PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Musing Mondays post, or share your answer in a comment here (if you don’t have a bl0g). Thanks! :D

    I just picked up “Matched” at the library on Saturday. I’m about 100 pages in and am LOVING it! I’m glad my students suggested it to me.

    Well, we had a blast – I watched some game and caught most of the commercials – I posted our favorite, the M&M one. If you missed it, you should come see it… best part of SuperBowl, almost!! hahahaha Too funny. No one in my family is THAT into football, we’re more into hangin’ out together. It was fun.

    I love football, and I’m a diehard Patriots fan, so I was glued to the TV last night… and glued to a box of tissues when they lost.

    I’m reading “Matched,” too! So far I’m loving it. What do you think? I have a feeling Cassia is going to pick Ky. I can’t wait to find out.

      I think it’s really good, and hard to put down! And, I’m loving the suspense with Cassia and Ky… very well-done! ;)
