This is another mini-challenge for Bloggiesta! This is a challenge set up by Girlxoxo! You have great ideas and I'm looking forward to doing more posts like this in the future.

A list of my top ten favorite books read in 2012, so far! It was hard coming up with this list, and there were a few close calls. 
If I did a review, they are linked up to the titles.

Ten things you don't know about me....

Well friends, I have been playing around with the idea of participating in Bloggiesta all week, but finally decided to give in once I realized this weekend in Los Angeles is Carmegeddon 2. Yes, that's right. We call it Carmegeddon. If you're unfamiliar with it, it's when the 405 freeway is closed between the 101 and the 10. 
If you haven't watched the Saturday Night Live skit, "The Californians", you should.
What this means is that there are only a couple ways for people in the San Fernando Valley to get over the hill to the west side. The beach side.
Carmegeddon 1 was done last year, same closure, and the roads were beautifully empty. Most people stayed home. I did too, and read a lot!

With that in mind, I hope to have some free time this weekend, staying away from the beach and the major highways and do some blog upkeep and some fun stuff with my readers!
So stop by and check out some fun stuff!

9/30

Update:

So it's Sunday night and I'll be honest, I'm pretty tired. I think I'll get some reading done before bed, but otherwise, I think my list of bloggiesta activities is done. For now!

That doesn't mean I won't be doing numbers 1 and 6 sometime this week, so look out for a super fun post.

And reviews are on their way!

So thanks for joining me during my first Bloggiesta! 

Have a wonderful week!
