Weekly Round Up (09.18.11)
These were my 5 most listened to tunes from the last week:
1. Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra) by Gotye
2. Eyes Wide Open by Gotye
3. Bronte by Gotye
4. In Your Light by Gotye
5. Easy Way Out by Gotye
Last week Rachel commented on my round up post recommending a couple songs by Gotye. Needless to say, as soon as I listened to the first song I was hooked. Every song on the Making Mirrors album really different, but they’re nearly all fantastic. So far my favourites are Somebody That I Used To Know and Bronte.

What are you reading and listening to? Did any new books find their way into your possession?
OOH how was Persuasion? I am reading Pride and Prejudice for book club (first time reading)
I knew you’d get hooked! hehe Nice to see your entire listening list is Gotye now. He’s so brilliant and I love his music videos. Hope you like Shadow of the Wind, I read that only a couple of months back. How did you find Persuasian?
Shadow of the Wind is one of my favorites! I hope you decide to dive into it.
Here is my Monday!
Looks like a good week.
I have Witches of East End sitting in my TBR pile, but I’m saving it for October.
I want to read The American Heiress! Hope you enjoy this week’s reads….

I’m listening to Mansfield Park. I’m reading three picture books a night with my children. That’s making my list seem really long. I also got some longer books finished too. Please come see what I’ve read.
I’ve always wanted to read Persuasion – how are you enjoying it?
Persuasion is one of my Jane Austen favs after P&P of course. I’ve seen the miniseries for Persuasion so maybe I’ll read the book one day.
