A long time ago I was a member of Book-of-the-Month Club, and over the years I purchased many of the annual Stephen King Library Desk Calendars. They were filled with interesting King trivia, quotes from his many books, and beautiful artwork. The 2013 Stephen King Desk Calendar is no exception. I was approached by Leah […]
Today’s Top Ten Tuesday (hosted by The Broke and the Bookish) is definitely my favorite of the year! And what a hard Top Ten to narrow down…I read so many wonderful books this year.

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and every week they come up with a new Top Ten theme. This week’s theme is pretty cool! To come up with list, I simply thought back to the books I’ve read that gave me a tingly feeling that I only get when I’ve […]
Welcome to In My Mailbox, hosted by The Story Siren. It’s been a slow couple of weeks for acquiring new books, but that’s a good thing because I have so much catching up to do. I’ve deliberately cut off my normal Amazon-purchasing habit for a while until I can catch my breath! But here’s what […]
