OK, so Jess and Mike came to stay for a few days...it was so wonderful to have them here for the minivacation. We did take in a bit of New Orleans, so I'll have to add to this. Anyway, the beignets were awesome!
I just posted my first review to Shvoom: Out of the Silent Planet , which was a real oldie (first published in 1938. It's a CS Lewis work.
So now I'm going to do the other two in the trilogy. I plan to write a lot of reviews to keep my habit of writing daily up. I just haven't done that because of Jess being here. But it was great to take a little time off work. (I go back in 2 days).
Anyway, here is the link to my review: http://www.shvoong.com/books/science-fiction/2084072-silent-planet/
