When you get a chance, check your stats to make sure I have yours posted correctly. I'm trying to stay on top of things and keep it all straight, but I often fail.

You're 1 ahead of me, Kate! LOL

[Kate]

I was doing really well until I went out of town to visit a college I'm going to in January. Going to be getting my master's in education! So excited to have an excuse to read teen fiction again. Lol.

[Nissie Lambert]

Congratulations, Kate!!!

[Kate]

Thanks Nissie! I'm really excited to get back into school even though I just got my Bachelor's in August.

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

Yes, wow!!! Congratulations, Kate! That's awesome. My son in law got his Masters in ... Education Administration? Yes, he's one of the bad guys! He's the VP over Special Education at a local high school.

[Kate]

Thanks Dhestiny! The program I'm doing is Middle Childhood Education (Language Arts and Social Studies). I have a year of core classes and then I transfer into the graduate program. It's a 12 month program for people that have a bachelor's in anything (for instance I have mine in American Studies) and want to get certified in Education.

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

That's awesome, Kate!! Good luck with that. I know people who lost their jobs here in CA, but are able to substitute teach for $120 a day. Having that certification is a great thing!

[Mandy]

I've still two left to finish. and . Hoping to get those knocked out this weekend. I've been picking up everything else though!!

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

Mandy, I LOVED One Reckless Summer. I'll warn you though, it's a very hot read. Don't know how you feel about that.

I need to read The Chief and The Hawk. I'm going to keep offering Build Your Own Challenges so I can clear off my shelves.

The hotter the better!!! :-D

The Chief was really good but for some reason, I can't get into The Hawk. My GF says it was better than Chief . . .

I've also got the one after One Reckless Summer to read.

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

I read Sugar Creek, too. I liked it well enough, it was a good story, but there were things that I found distracting me from the main storyline. LOL
