When I finished this one, I needed a pint of Moose Tracks, a double shot of vodka, and 3 mile run. Quite possibly at the same time. The Next Girl is quite a ride. Very rarely do I finish a book and have such conflicting thoughts and reactions and yet all of them led to …

“Because as long as you believe that what you see is what you get, I get to stay this way. Poised. Devoted. Alive” With these opening words, I was hooked into the world of Kristin, Izzy, Clara, and Natalie and their lives in their small community. I’ll you tell from the beginning, I need more …

I bought this book by accident. My stupid iPhone was on a ghosting spree and clicked one-click Amazon. I really shouldn’t say those words I said when this book downloaded to my kindle. I should have just buckled up and grabbed snacks for this ride. Sweet baby Moses, this book left me staring at the …

March is the beginning of spring. That means, for some people, they get the urge to clean all the things. Considering I still have 2 full-sized bedrooms still full of moving boxes, I need to punch a ticket for that cleaning train. March is also the beginning of the Yellow Snow of the south. Pollen. …

I have to say, this graphic is a thing of glorious beauty. Up until this month, I had 3 ride-or-die instant buy or click authors. JD Robb is an instant buy from a bookstore.

  She went and did something I’m not real thrilled about. She wrote a NOVELLA….about Chaos motorcycle club. The one MC series that I can read and reread multiple times a year. Rough Ride is part of the 1001 Dark Nights group. This short ass, not enough words, just enough to make me mad, novella …

This month, I’m aiming for 3 things to accomplish. I was full of energy and optimism in January. Then I got sick. Now I am putting on my “Get real” hat. For the newer folks, each month, I write down on paper in front of God and everybody, things I need to get done. This …

One of my main intentions for 2018 was to read more and not just read more but report more. I had said in an earlier post that I often get in slumps when all I do is reread older favorites and I wanted to expand my reading and actually post reviews. I took a couple …

Happy First Friday! It’s also my first day back to work and I won’t lie. I NEED to use this teacher work day as an actual clean-the-classroom work day, but I WANT to sleep a little longer. I am fighting off an awful cold/sinus/crud thing and I am dragging my tail to school. Here are …

Have I mentioned that today is the Rock’n’Roll Nashville half marathon?? I’m sure I’ve mentioned it somewhere…. Anyway, I’m still in Tuscaloosa. Not Nashville.
