November in Review

Image via We Heart It

I've put off writing this post because I'm kind of in denial that November is over already. The year has gone terrifyingly fast for me. I'm normally really excited for Christmas, and always put the tree up on December 1. But this year I'm just So. Not. Ready. I think time has gone even faster for me lately because I've been crazy-busy. With six months to go 'til my wedding, it's crunch time in the planning stage and I need to get my shite together. I still have to book in most things... but I have got the most important - my wedding dress, of course! That was the definitely the highlight of my month. I also just bought the bridesmaid's dresses yesterday, so I'm feeling a bit more relaxed about the whole thing. But all this has meant I haven't had much time for blogging or reading, unfortunately. Here's what I did manage to do...

I read and reviewed...

• My Name is Memory by Ann Brashares
• Amy and Roger's Epic Detour by Morgan Matson (My fave book of the month)
• The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

I swooned over...

• Daniel Grey
• Carlos Fuentes
• Luis Fuentes
• Roger Sullivan
• The Twilight boys
• The men of Little Women
• The heroes of V.C. Andrews (well, kinda)

I featured reading icons...

• Betty Draper Francis
• Paul Newman

I listed my top five...

• Characters I love to hate 
• Gateway books

Other fun stuff: I shared my thoughts on The Hunger Games trailer and Breaking Dawn: Part 1; discovered some Twilight-related buys; played with Cubee Craft and giggled at Take a Weird Break.

How was your November? Feel free to share links - I haven't had times to visit as many blogs as I usually do and want to catch up!
