    While Im reading books for reviews and gearing up for the next giveaway, I thought we might all enjoy a brief musical interlude

    Were a musical household here. Those of you who know me personally know that my other half is a pianist and classical composer. I spent the requisite four years of high school as a band geek, schlepping a baritone sax that was just about as big as I was.
