I'm working on my next novel, which will be a Regency romance published under a pseudonym, Camille Elliot. So my reading has mostly been research books or occasionally Netgalley books I have to read before they're removed from my shelf by the publishers. :)

This book is a little gift book, a touristy walking tours book, but the historical tidbits and the historical illustrations have been absolute GOLD for me as I write my novel. Plus it helps me revisit the enjoyable day I spent in Bath during my trip to the UK last year. I love it!

What are you reading?

That looks good! I loved those old Temptations, although the covers are a bit cheesy. :)

No I haven't. I could have received some of her other books to review but I have to be careful with my time lately.

Judy | 181 comments I did just read a review book a few days ago that was really good, Made to Last By Melissa Tagg
I will be looking for the next book as it will be one of the other characters story and she made him so lovable.

So many are well worth reading. I finally read through Camy's Sushi Series and I am so glad I took the time to do so. I had just finished them and received a proofing job that also had a Japanese American female. I laughed as that made 6 books in a row with an Asian heroine.

It is. She had five of her books free a while back and I read them all. I really like the Unwilling Wife, if you ever can get that one when it's free. It's actually a couple that are in love but he overprotects her so she goes to live in the Lighthouse in CA her grandfather left her and he's the dean of a prestigious Boston college.

Renee has had a family of foxes in her neighborhood and puts the cutest pictures up on Facebook. The baby foxes, that are getting pretty big now, go and lounge in the chairs around the neighbors pool.

message 28: by Judy (new)

Judy | 181 comments I have Royal Heist by Rachelle McCalla looking at me but have been busy building my business page. I know this site has nothing to do with proofreading, but I have been humbled by the authors who not only were willing to let others know I work for them, but they also wrote endorsements that just blessed me. I'm almost embarrassed to post them on my web site because it feels like blowing my own horn. I'm going to share it though, please don't take as me being prideful. I don't mean it like that at all.

Judy | 181 comments I finished reading the last of Lisa Scott's books. Wedding Flirts! More Flirts! and Spouse Hunting. Love the Flirt! books as they are 5 stories in each book so I can read one and walk away before starting the next. Nice for in between the larger novellas.

I've held off reading Game of Thrones until the entire series is done. I think I would die if I had to wait so long for the next book!

Ouch! I hope this new doctor helps your recover faster. Cheryl had a doctor misdiagnose her hip and had more damage because of it.
