Wow. Busy Week.
It's going to be quite a week. Tuesday is the cover release, actual release and contest for Love, Lattes and Mutants. I'll probably leave the cover release up a week then on the 25th I'll be posting the cover release for Eric Fanning's Blood Stitches. After that posting will be back to normal...whatever that means.I'll be working till the end of the month but my retirement reception is being held this Thursday. My boss-friend asked what I'd do when I woke up in the morning and didn't know what to do with myself. I told her I'd probably roll over and go back to sleep. Heh heh.
Did ya'll have a good Valentine's Day? I spent the morning getting my tax information together. sigh.
Let me know how you're doing. Have a great week!
~*~Have you seen this one?

Jupiter Ascending and Good Reads
Have you seen this one? Visually it was stunning. One of the reviewers described it as campy which is a good description. It just wasn't my cup of tea. The hh liked it. If you've seen it, let me know what you think.Spoiler alert: I did not find using a sanitary pad as a bandage and holding it up for the audience to be sure and see the blood on it particularly funny. Ewww.
~*~
I did read several novels I enjoyed. The Broker by Grisham gets full marks. Ithas been several years since I've read him and he hasn't lost his touch.
I also read Anna Soliveres Violet Storm. I hadn't read any of Anna's works before and thoroughly enjoyed it and plan on reading her again. What first drew me was the cover. Don't you love it?
I've purchased and can't wait to read 25 Roses by blogger bud Stephanie Faris. It's getting 5 star reviews at Amazon. I recently read Erin Fanning's Blood Stitches. She'll be doing her cover reveal here Feb. 25th. So as not to give too much away just let me say, Ms. Fanning takes a unique topic and weaves it into a fun yarn.
Julia Barrett was kind enough to give me a gift certificate for Captured. I'm looking forward to reading this one.Alex Cavanaugh has a new one coming in April that can be preordered.
And Pat Hatt and Shelley Munro had releases in January.
We're going to have to wait several months for The Secret Life of Fairday Marrow, by Jessica Haight and Stephanie Robinson but look forward to its release with great anticipation.
Another delightful little book I'm looking forward to reading is Genna Bean's Come Back Dear Sun.
So what's on your read list?

Monday MishMash
The HH somehow turned off the alarm clock, that normally goes off at 6:00 a.m., on Friday and set it so it went off Saturday. sigh.
~*~Man with twenty-one mile walking commute is given a new car: https://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/see-the-detroiter-with-21-mile-walking-commute-get-a-surprise-new-car-201755338.htmlIs this not the coolest story? Both for the fact that this man had such a strong work ethic and the fact that folks came together to make his life better.
