Watched: Normally I don't list what TV or movies I've watched during the week, but I just got Apple TV and am so excited that I can watch anything from Netflix at any time! I watched The Cove, a documentary about dolphin hunting/killing in Japan. It was so very interesting and disturbing!

Girl in Translation is the one I would like to get to (eventually!). Enjoy the reads.
Girl in Translation is on my "read someday" list too. My Monday Report is here. Have a great week!
Great books this week!
Girl in Translation looks really interesting. I read a great author interview on a blog (can't remember which one :(). Now that school is finished, maybe I will watch some tv/movies. Mostly I want to read!
Great reading happening here!!

Mystica and Kathy, bibliophiliac--I just started "Girl" last night so am only a few pages in, but so far so good
We Fancy Books, A Musing Mother, Lori--thanks, I hope you have a great reading week as well
Do you think that high schoolers will read the Nelson Mandela Graphic biography? It sounds good but I'm never sure if the extra cost is worth it.
I quite enjoyed reading Shantaram.
Pussreboots--Wow! 24 years of a book diary, what a wonderful thing! I kept a regular diary for 20 years and then promptly stopped. It was really fun to go back and read them all.
Esme--Glad to hear you enjoyed Shantaram, I feel like we've got a long way to go
Anne--I hope they will (that's not a very good answer, is it?). I got it as a present so the library isn't going to be out any money. I'll try to put it front and center again when school begins and see what happens
I think it is great to list TV watched! It's turning out to be a regular habit of mine now.
Aths--Seeing what people watch on TV is interesting, I'll try to remember to post significant stuff on my Mondays
