Okay, okay, so we're a little more than 6 months into the year. Perhaps I was being a tad ambitious about reading 12 Twitter friends' books in a year, especially when my own book launched a few months ago and I've had several signings and events and I'm still trying to keep up on recommended reading [...]
Okay, so it's been almost two months since my last blogpost. Please don't yell at me! I've been busy. I promise. And yes, busy with so much book-stuff I can hardly keep track of it all. Not that I'm complaining... First up, I got to visit one of my most amazing-est (Yes, that's a word. [...]
This month, in my Twitter-Friend Book Review, I chose Katrina Ariel’s Wild Horse Heart. I first glimpsed this book when Katrina and I became friends on Twitter and I was lucky enough to read some of her other work as a critique partner long ago.

Maria Stout (@MariaStout) - I’m a writer, so I really enjoy following other writers, especially upbeat ones who give their all, [...]
Friends! I am so glad I chose Jennifer M. Lane’s Stick Figures from Rockport as my monthly Twitter-friends read. It was delightful! I’m pretty particular when it comes to women’s fiction, so I always hold my breath a little for the first fifty pages or so. I like women’s fiction, but as a strong empath, [...]

Join me in welcoming author Jean M. Grant to my blog again today as she releases the second of her three 2019 anticipated books and novellas. Soul of the Storm is a sweet romance novella ebook from the Deerbourne Inn series that features a heroine you’ll enjoy rooting for, a hero you can fall in [...]
How is it already March? Guess what? That means another of my 12 Books segments! For this month, I chose The Changing Tide by K.A. Dowling. I’ve been following Kelly on Twitter for quite some time.
