thanks for the reminder, I used to also type the title but then stopped, I didn't think about whether people would have problems if they were reading on their phones, etc. :)

I received an invite to read Life After by Katie Ganshert today :) because I am in the Launch Team. This is the first time I received an invite and I think I'll really enjoy the book.

I am currently reading The Grave Tender and really like it. I just finished No Turning Back, it was good as well.

"Shelter"...it's so good. I LOVE WW II historical fiction for some reason and this takes on a new angle. I just don't have enough hours in my day to make this a "1 Day" read otherwise I totally would 😩😩😩😩
I've just started
, Beartown, partly because so many of my goodreads friends gave it a 5, how could I pass that up?
Just finished Great Stories by Chekhov, a recent publication of stories from 19th century Russian author Anton Chekhov. My review (with many quotes to give you an idea of the Russian winter and philosophy)

Another pretty children's picture book asking the question we've all been asked: Why is the sky blue? Why Blue?
