I took a totally unintentional blogging vacation. I went out for a friend’s birthday Friday Night and had yummy sangria and Mexican food and then Saturday Night a friend had a housewarming party and I had yummy sangria and appetizers. And then on Sunday I played bocce and my friend came over for dinner after, and we watched <em>I Am Legend</em> which I didn’t think was that great.
But in the midst of all that, I had two books arrive. One of which I have already finished. That should be a review in and of itself. Can you guess which one?

My guess would be Testimony. By the way, I wasn’t crazy about I Am Legend either. I just hated that the dog had to die. That ruined the movie for me.
I have not seen I am Legend yet, but I read the short story that it was based on. The short story was good.
I’m guessing Testimony too.
I love the cover of Time of My Life. I’ve not heard of that one.
Nicole, sounds like you had a great weekend. Much more eventful than mine!
I’m also guessing Testimony. I’m looking forward to reading it. I’ve heard it’s good.
Me too I’m guessing Testimony, but Time of My Life looks interesting too!
Time of My Life looks fun!
I’m starting Monday Mailbox next week!
I thought Will Smith did a good job in the movie, but was very sad about the dog!
Take care ~ Wendi

Kathy ~ It was over once Samantha died. Movies can be realistic in any way that they want but once animals die, that’s it.
Lissa ~ I’m sure the story was the way to go. Reading over watching usually is.
Shana ~ It was a lot of fun, but I knew that I was going to pay for it during the week. And I am!
Wendi ~ I’ll be interested to see what you get! I’m sure it will just make me want to add to a TBR pile that doesn’t need any more books.
Kathy, Shana, Carol and Avis ~ You are all right! I got it on Thursday during my lunch break, kicked myself for leaving it on my desk at work, picked it up again and was finished by Saturday morning. If I hadn’t been out I’m sure I would have finished on Friday night.
Thank you for stopping by the ‘Mailbox’. I’ll have to admit I’ve finally given up reading Anita Shreve. I’ve tried a several of different times to read her books and it’s been disastrous each time. The only one I made it through was ‘Light on Snow’.
Can’t wait to read Testimony!
I was expecting so much more from I Am Legend. It wasn’t completely horrible, but I hated the ending.
