Mirror Mirror is our feature that replaces the old Stacking The Shelves/Weekly Recap posts. Bieke decided to make her own original feature because it was more than just a STS or recap post.
Life, News & Happenings
Hi there gorgeous readers! Looking back at my last Mirror post, it’s been almost a month! Can you tell I’m a busy bee? Summer is usually a busy time for me since I have a lot of professional (work) events plus my family usually comes to visit. I was away last week at BEA (event review next week) and then I had a conference from Sunday until Wednesday and then back to work.
Anyway, my kids last day of school was on Thursday, but we also had two events with the kids before that. I missed Chris’s summer concert since I was in BEA, but hubby recorded for me and here he is:
Also, Brian was inducted to the Thespian society and he also received an award for the best actor this season. My handsome actor:
Next in my busy life: I have another conference in a couple of weeks in DC and I stay there which is nice. Then in early July, hubby and I will celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary, Chris is turning 12 and my mom is coming for a visit. I see cake, shopping and cleaning in my future 🙂

[…] was fortunate to go to Book Expo America (BEA) this year. If you want to see my book haul, check this post. Before launching into the details of the trip, I have a few words about BEA 2017. It was […]
Are you happy school is over too?? I sure am!
I didn’t even know there was a recent BEA until Nick told me last week. Sadly, I don’t recognize most of the books in your haul (I’m so off in my YA game lately) but I hope you enjoy them all!

I’m so happy too! Just the after-school activities can get exhausting. BEA was on Memorial Day week and it was good. Losts of fantasy this time, I tried to control myself and didn’t take that many books.

Me and you got several books in common at BEA. I put up my haul last week. Awesome haul of books.

Wow, you got a lot of books! I hope you love all of them! I would love to go to BEA, but I DID go to BookCon and I’m pretty happy about that 🙂

I hope I love them too 🙂 How was BookCon?
Holy cow, that’s a lot of books! I would love to go to a big event like that one day. They seem like so much fun. Can’t wait to read your recap post for the even. Hope you enjoy all of your new books and have a great weekend!
