- Good Books & Good Wine (the title really says it all, no?)
- The Book Scout (Kelsey is one of the most active book bloggers we know. Love watching her Twitter feed to see what she's reading)
- Pop Culture Junkie (Alea's blog was the very first book blog we started stalking and it's still a favorite)
- A CHAIR, A FIREPLACE & A TEA COZY (Liz's reviews are always honest and usually entertaining)
- YA BookNerd (Jennifer is always reviewing the books we want to read and for that, we love her)
- Persnickety Snark (Loretta recommended this blog to us and we've been checking it regularly ever since.)
These are just a handful of the blogs we read regularly for book reviews. What are some of your favorites?
2. I'm obsessed with my new phone. I got a Droid X after my friend recommended it to me and holy crap you guys, it's kind of amazing. Definitely puts my Blackberry to shame. And yeah, I might have purposely got it now so I'll be able to stay better connected during my "maternity leave." I mean if I'm up with the baby at 4 AM, I might as well check Twitter.
3. I'm FINALLY getting caught up on the current season of Project Runway. This means it's back-to-back PR episodes in my house. Favorite part? When my husband can't help but sneak a peek from the kitchen and weighs in. "I love how Gretchen threw that guy under the bus when she said she wasn't going to" or "That's the final outfit?" My little fashionisto.
4. Lydia is off to Time for Tots next week. For the first time I'll have 2 whole hours (I know, I know, 2 hours is not a lot of time) in the morning all to myself. I'm not even going home, I'm headed to the library to WRITE!
5. Speaking of writing, we are officially back on deadline. We are jumping back into our WIP and couldn't be more excited about it. Back to work!
Have a fabulous weekend everyone!

OMG, I'm up at five am for no good reason. Thank God for your blog list!
This post put a smile on my face. Expecially the mommy time--two whole wonderful hours! Good for you!
Definately, soak in mommy time. I love mommy time.
I watch project runway too. Gretchen did throw him under the bus. Ohhh bitchiness.
Awesome. Lots of cool news. Off to check out your blog suggestions now. Have a great weekend ladies!
Enjoy the process girls! I love Kelsey's blog- can always count on her for honest and well thought reviews on great books. I'll have to check out the others! Thanks!
YAY I won!! woo hoo! Oh, and if the Droid is anything like my iPhone (I hear they're pretty similar) you'll have a little obsession going on! *kisses my iPhone*
Woo hoo, Christina. :D
Good luck, girls, with the deadline. Can't wait to read the book. (after I read the first one, of course). :D
Awww, this makes my day :-)
You ladies are awesome, and absolutely top my list for favorite author blogs. :-)
I can't freakin wait until Liar Society is out. ALSO when are y'all revealing the cover? Inquiring minds want to know!!
With kids, two hours alone is almost a miracle. Woohoo!
I've been thinking about a Droid X. Sounds great.
Enjoy your "free" time while you can!
aww thanks :) you know I love you two too.
and I second the question about your cover reveal! I can't wait to see it
Thanks for the links! Always stalking new book blogs.
Have to wait til tomorrow to watch PR. My hubby just isn't as sartorial as yours. ;) He does hate Gretchen, though, so he's not completely hopeless.
Congrats, Christina!
Did someone say Liar Society COVER? Now I'm dying to hear more.
Thanks for reminding me that I have to watch this week's episode of Project Runway! My dad likes to pretend to be Tim Gunn. "Make it work!" "This concerns me."
My husband watches Project Runway with me too. He claims to hate it, but then he critiques the dresses with me, so I know he secretly enjoys it...
Woot! Thanks for the book blogger list and congrats on the Time for Moms, er, um, Time for Tots! You, dang your DAUGHTER, will have a ton of fun!
I keep meaning to get into Project Runway, but I haven't yet. Have a fabulous weekend! And good luck with the WIP! :)
After wandering around in New York with nothing but a map and some filched WiFi here and there, I WISH I had a smart phone with a data plan. Never thought I needed it before, and then I realized how handy it would be to have a subway app.
Good luck with your deadlines! Yay for writing!!!
Two hours is an amazing amount of time! Enjoy it :)
Congrats to Christina!!
I will definitely check out those book review blogs.
Awww thanks Lisa & Laura :) I'm so excited to be on your list. Love you too!
Also, 5 more followers to 1,000. Congrats!
I am loving this season of Project Runway! (I really liked to listen to Cassanova speak.)
I can't quite see a winner yet, though. Nobody's style is saying, "collection".

I have a Droid X, too! *technology fistbump*
I watch Project Runway, too! *fashion fistbump*
I've been working on my WIP, too! *writing fistbump*
Does this qualify me as an honorary Roecker yet?
That new phone sounds fun and productive--even at 4 am.
