Things are still pretty busy in my world... gearing up for the last week of teaching summer school, then off for a vacation in Massachusetts... then time to pack up the storage unit and move into my new apartment!  So, just to stay in the loop... here is a list of what I've read since my last review (although I may miss a few as 99% of my books are currently in storage)... also, these will definitely be out of order in which I read them- like I said, it was a hectic few months!!

Where in the world is Jenna??

Well hello!  It's been quite some time now, hasn't it?  I needed a break from my blog world, as my life got flipped turned upside down.  Since my last post, I ended a sour relationship, moved home, looked for an apartment for MONTHS, found an apartment, continue to wait for said apartment to be renovated, planned a bridal shower, got happy, started working out again, met an amazing man, continue to be happy, found the love for my job again and quit smoking... whew!  THAT is why I needed take unplug.  I didn't touch my computer for anything more than to watch a movie on Netflix or to get GoogleMap directions in the past 3 months.  I have been reading.  Not my usual rate of reading,  but reading none the less.

My posts may be spotty for the next month or two... but once I get settled into my new place (I move in Sept 1) I hope to be more consistent.  I have plenty of reviews to write from the past few months of silence, and TONS of blog reading to catch up on.  Hope to catch up with you all soon!
