A weekly meme hosted by Sheila @ One Person's Journey Through a World of Books.
Hope everyone had a great Hallowe'en! We didn't get many trick-or-treaters (seems to be a trend over the last couple of years) but we had a few cuties, the most impressive being a family of Toy Story characters (dad as Woody, mom as Mrs. Potato Head, one girl as Jessie, and one as Little Bo Peep)!
I dug out my black & gold witch's hat, black velvet cape & slathered on the makeup. It took lots of scrubbing with cold cream to get it all off but you only get 1 night a year to go crazy dressing up, so why not? :D
As for reading, it's a bit of deja vu from yesterday's monthly wrap-up, but maybe retyping it will get me cracking on it :D

Reviews This Week
None :( I'm going to post some "retro read" reviews this week.
What's New
~Added My 100 Favourite Movies page. That was fun to compile but excruiating to format :D
~I'm hosting an "honourable" giveaway until November 13 to celebrate my 50th follower milestone. I don't have anything tangible to give away (call it lack of funds & lack of willingness to give away books!) but I'm offering exploitative advertising for your blog (he he) and a guest post exchange for posting about "what reading means to you." Hope you'll participate :)
Have a great reading week :D
I am reading The Trophy Bride
