Family Fridays – Brazil Edition

Posted by on Sep 6, 2013

Well, the rest of the September is going to look quite a bit different here at Lector’s Books. For one thing, as you’re reading this, I am probably struggling my way through Brazilian customs right now (with a baby!) and will be spending much of the rest of the month there. While I love this blog and you, my gentle readers (actually, you’re way better than gentle readers – you’re passionate readers), I’m going to take a break from blogging while I’m gone.

Fear not, since I have lined up a full month’s worth of guest posts that are all amazing. I hope you enjoy them even half as much as I have. It has been humbling to learn, as many of you have answered the call to guest blog, that not only am I blessed to be part of a circle of readers, I am also blessed to be part of a circle of talented writers, each with his or her own passion to share with you.

So, it’s going to be a great month, and I don’t mean that just because I’ll be on the beach in Brazil drinking caipirinhas (traveling with a baby is always stress-free, right? Right?!?).

But it’s Family Fridays, so I’m going to leave you with this recommendation: Rio.

It’s a really fun movie set in Rio – and the graphics are detailed enough that I’ve heard Rio natives look for their apartment buildings. I frankly was not expecting to enjoy it (Jesse Eisenberg annoys me, as does Tracy Morgan – they both did an excellent job), but it was cute without being too cutesy and had some good action and songs, followed by a (spoiler alert) happy ending.

Get it! Amazon, Barnes & Noble

    With the stresses of our individual lives it’s necessary to take a breather from time to time to regroup. If you don’t take the much needed time for yourself when necessary, you are really no good to anyone. I hope you enjoy and get plenty of (R & R). This would be a much stressful world if everyone could take some time off to listen to the birds and the roaring of the waves as the sand is washed back and forth. I must stop myself because for a minute I thought I was on the beach in Brazil too. Enjoy!!!
