I'm Back.

At the very end of November, right after Thanksgiving, my grandfather died. Seeing as he was 95, had only stopped driving at 93, and was generally pretty hale and hearty up until the last few months, this was not exactly a horrible tragedy that had me lying awake at night.

However, it was a time consuming one. (Of the last 42 days of the year, I spent 23 of them in Dallas with the family.)

Madeline Smoot gave to: The Girl of Fire and Thorns (Fire and Thorns, #1) by Rae Carson (Goodreads Author)	My rating:

Madeline Smoot gave to: Solstice by P. J. Hoover (Goodreads Author)	My rating:
This is the kind of book that I found myself thinking about long after (I mean weeks after) I initially read it. The characters and situations are compelling and memorable. I can't wait for the sequel!

Madeline Smoot gave to: All These Things I've Done (Birthright, #1) by Gabrielle Zevin (Goodreads Author)	My rating:
