Planner Spread & Book Haul!

Happy Monday! I'm feeling a lot lighter and brighter today, thank God. I hope you all are doing well too! Today I thought I'd do a fun little post of my book haul and planner spread. I haven't done too much today; I slept in quite late but I really needed the sleep because I haven't been sleeping well for a few days. I went to a library that's not our local one with my mom and WOW! It's huge and beautiful and chock full of books and even a cafe with yummy food! I'm already planning days where I'll read, eat, and blog there! 

While at the library, I discovered the used book section and luckily found two books! The first book I found was Julie & Julia by Julie Powell! Have y'all seen the movie with Amy Adams and Meryl Streep? It's so cute and such a fun movie! I've been wanting to read the book for ages so I'm pumped that I found it! In case you have no idea what I'm talking about: this woman, Julie Powell, started a blog and then a book all about her year of cooking her way through Julia Child's cookbook! She talks about recipes, Julia's life, and her own life. I LOVE books like that, so I know I'm going to love it already! 

The next book I got is a memoir by Wendy Burden. She is the great-great-great-great granddaughter of Cornelius Vanderbilt!!! Yeah, that's right, THE Vanderbilts! She writes all about her famous, fabulously wealthy, and rather quirky family! I can't wait to read this, I'm a sucker for memoirs about famous families and this is sure to be a good read. I'll do reviews on my book blog of both of these books when I'm finished!

Now for my planner spread, I decided to do a black and white striped with splashes of red theme today!

This week I don't really have much going on! Just lots of blogging, reading, and self care. I'm going shopping and to the movies tomorrow with my dear mommy, so that will be fun! I'm planning a fashion post of some of the summer clothes I got recently! I also have a ton of books to read and get reviewed, so that will take up a lot of my time too. Here's the other page:

As usual, I left the bottom row empty to fill in at the end of each day, kind of like a mini diary :) I've been doing the nutrisystem diet since Saturday, so I'm thinking of doing weigh-in posts and what I eat in a day posts as well! We'll see! Other than all of that, I'm going to be staying inside and out of this horrible sun and heat!!! Can you tell my least favorite season is summer lol?

I hope you all are doing good and taking care of yourselves! Let this week be a good one! See y'all soon :)
