Weekly Recap: 8/9 - 8/15

My Super Exciting Life 

First of all... SEVEN DAYS UNTIL DISNEY!! I'm about to lose it, guys! It's everything I can do not to go ahead and pack and sit on my suitcase in front of the door for the next week. It will be a strange trip since I'm driving down by myself. It isn't my first solo trip to Disney World, but last time I flew. So I'm loaded up on audiobooks and raring to go!

Second, this Tuesday was the one year anniversary of Robin Williams' death and the world mourned him all over again. I'm still amazed at how hard everyone, including me, took his death, considering I usually don't follow celebrities too closely. This definitely calls for a weekend of Jumanji and Hook in remembrance of such an amazing character!

Third, I posted a pretty awesome giveaway this week to celebrate (lament?) the end of summer! Three amazing authors donated signed copies and the rest are a mix of new and used books (one is even signed!) and a few extras! This is up for grabs in the US only (sorry!) and you can find it in this post or in the sidebar! ----->
