Month in Review: March 2015

amonthinreview

 

March was a pretty tough month for us. Our dear, sweet kitty Jadzia passed away.  Thankfully, the boys and I have been volunteering with a local animal rescue so that’s helped us deal with the pain.

I celebrated another year of blogging! Though things have certainly changed over the years, I still love the experience and the community surrounding it!

Though it’s technically Spring, it certainly doesn’t feel like it! We had a pretty decent-sized snow storm at the beginning of the month. While we’ve had hints of warm weather here and there, it quickly reverts back to cold weather.  All this said, I’m looking forward to Spring: flowers (although I’m allergic to most!), the return of outdoor activities, Easter (and all our traditions that accompany it)!

So, let’s see what took place on the blog this past month:

Through the Woods by Emily Carroll
At the Water’s Edge by Sara Gruen
The Walls Around Us by Nova Ren Suma
Hausfrau by Jill Alexander Essbaum
The Precious One by Marisa De Los Santos
What Stands in a Storm: Three Days in the Worst Superstorm to Hit the South’s Tornado Alley by Kim Cross
Miramont’s Ghost by Elizabeth Hall
Shadow Scale by Rachel Hartman

9 books reviewed. My favorite, no doubt in my mind, is Hausfrau by Jill Alexander Essbaum

It’s one of my missions to integrate my love and appreciation of comics with my blog. So, I started a new series centered around a comic-loving family:

On Finding a Family Comic Book Store (Or, What Not to Do to Customers)
On Organizing Thy Comic Inventory (Part 1)!
On Organizing Thy Comic Inventory (Part II)!

Want to know what it’s like to live a day in my shoes?

A Day in the Life….

Sharing the April titles I’m looking forward to most:

Spring Book Preview: April 2015, Part I
Spring Book Preview: April 2015, Part II

And finally, the importance of getting away:

TSS: On Getting Away
