Good morning! Today’s post will link up to The Sunday Salon, The Sunday Post and Stacking the Shelves, for weekly updates.
**Mailbox Monday is hosted at the home site: Mailbox Monday.
And let’s join Kathryn, our leader in It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?, at Book Date.
The week started off great, with two fabulous reads. Then I seemed to be stuck between two books that just didn’t grab me. As I went back and forth between them, I feared that I would not find anything more to engage me this week. After I tossed them aside (DNF), I picked up a review ARC from Amazon Vine, and started in. I was a little hesitant, as it had 498 pages. But I finished it…loved it! It kept me thoroughly intrigued throughout.
Warm and then cooler weather followed us…and ended up being pretty perfect. This weekend, I will run some errands…and hopefully see a movie.
Let’s grab some coffee and take a look at the rest of the week…
