What I Am Reading:

A Magic Steeped in Poison by Judy Lin

Freedom: The Story of the Black Panther Party by Jetta Grace Martin

Pixels of You by Ananth Hirsh and Yuko Ota

and a lot of Cybils Fiction Picture Book and Board Book nominees.

Last week I posted here at Readerbuzz:

The Sunday Salon: Solito and How to Live
Books I Read On Vacation
Author Erika L. Sánchez Comes to Houston

I finished The Marriage Portrait just in time to hear author Maggie O'Farrell read from her book at Inprint on Monday night. The publisher does not allow photos, so I had to satisfied with this snapshot of the empty stage.

Good Thing #1

No traveling this week, 

but we attended a field trip to Texas A&M-Galveston

for our naturalist group to learn about 

saving sea turtles and replanting trees in Galveston after Hurricane Harvey.

Good Thing #2

While we were at A&M-Galveston, we visited their Sea Life Center

where we saw a tank of alligators.

Good Thing #3

We participated in a Pollinator Bioblitz.

I saw two new-to-me species of butterflies,

Ceraunus Blue (l) and Dorantes Longtail (r).

I'm happy you joined us here at the Sunday Salon. Sunday Salon is a place to link up and to share what we have been doing during the week. It's a great way to visit other blogs and join in the conversations going on there. 

Some of the things we often talk about at the Sunday Salon:

• What was your week like?
• Read any good books? Tell us about them.
• What other bookish things did you do? 
• What else is going on in your life?
