Weekly Wrap-up: July 21-27

So...I kind of got a promotion at work this week, buuuuuuut it was unexpected and comes with a LOT of extra work. So my whole week was spent dealing with work emergencies, and what little free time I had was spent feverishly finishing reading these books or attending the semifinal matches of the CONCACAF Gold Cup (basically, one of the biggest soccer games of the year for the US Men's National Team). While work was a total pain, the reading and the soccer game were well worth late, late nights and (at least for the game), hours spent stuck in traffic. Soccer guys games = happy Mary!

Completed:
Gameboard of the Gods (Age of X #1) - Richelle Mead: 5 stars. Very different from Vampire Academy but still really interesting.

Reread:
Love Story - Jennifer Echols: 4 stars. It has never been and will never be my favorite Echols' book, but it's sweet and real, just like all of her stories.
