Collecting Summer Reading Suggestions

Collecting Summer Reading Suggestions

It’s the beginning of June and the kickoff of summer fun – I’ve been devouring different blog posts/news articles about suggestions for summer reading lists.  I think it’s a little funny because I love reading all year, but the best suggestions, or even the most popular time for discussing books, seems to be in the summer.  You know?  What makes the summer months more appealing for grabbing a good book? I think for the month of June, in between some…

Have you found your dream job?

Have you found your dream job?

What are we Reading, Wednesday? (Part 2)

How’s everyone’s week going so far?  It’s been a little quiet around here, hubby had surgery a week ago and we are all basically in quiet and care mode right now; which is nice because it gives me a little more time to read and write. *evil laugh* Awhile ago I picked up a Romantic Suspense (probably my favorite genre) by Jayne Ann Krentz called, Secret Sisters. I loved it.  I was thrilled because I was in between books from my…
