2019 is drawing to a close and in my year-end panic, I'd like to propose the addition of a month dedicated to reading, we'll name it Bookstember and everyone can live happily ever after!

It's time again to link up with That Artsy Reader Girl for Top Ten Tuesday! The topic this week is: "Halloween Freebie!"

Happy Friday, reader friends! In honor of Valentines Day, we're celebrating with a special edition of First Line Fridays!

Merry Christmas, reader friends! Whether you are basking in the celebratory glow of love and gratitude or sneaking off to hide in a closet and decompress, it's always a great time for a story! Genres, time periods, settings... we love them all! SO, what kind of fictional experience are y'all in the mood for?! [...]

A conflict-avoiding teacher. A take-no-prisoners PTA mom. All that pulls them together is the gardening class he’s reluctantly teaching. How can Myles compete with the man from Adriana’s memories? He’s not the material champions are made of. Or is he? [...]
Since this is a season of celebrations in my little corner of the world, I want to wish an early Happy Canada Day to my northern neighbours, Happy Independence Day to my fellow Americans, and a big hearty "Howdy, y'all!" and friendly wave for everyone else! Here are the newest additions to my all-time favorites! [...]
Can love sprout amid a tsunami of vegetables? Single mom Evelyn Felton takes on another part-time job managing a greenhouse and garden project for Grace Fellowship. If only Ben Kujak weren’t running Corinna’s Cupboard singlehandedly, he’d be delighted to be on the receiving end. [...]
