While I’ve been busy reading, reading, reading… they aren’t books I can share with y’all here on the blog, sorry! To make it up to you, let’s have a little cover love pretty dresses fun today, reader friends… and by fun, I obviously mean something bookish like drooling over covers and a giveaway!!!
Whoop whoop!
I’m focusing on books I’ve read and reviewed on the blog this year (because I really do need to get back to reading and I could go on for a very long time without some kind of constraint here).
Clicking the covers below will send you to a review post for more about these lovely stories!

More elegant white flowingness! Doesn’t all this frippery make you feel pretty?

When i try running on loose sand, i must look hilarious because I feel almost like I’m running in place, LOL. Running on loose sand is like trying to run uphill on a downward escalator, but harder :). My tip is to seek the water-packed sand.
