About This Blog
I dare say I’m your basic, garden-variety bookworm. I love to read, and always have. Reading isn’t just a hobby for me; it’s a passion. My late husband could certainly attest to just how much I read!
Even back in school, I found ways to squeeze in a little extra reading. I would listen to the teacher while secretly keeping a book open on my lap. Some things never change!
These days, my reading tastes are as varied as ever. One day, I might be curled up with a contemporary romance, and the next, exploring a science fiction romance. And then there are the cookbooks! I enjoy discovering new recipes and ideas in those, too.
You’ll also find book tours and spotlights here. Why? Because what better way is there to discover interesting new authors and books to add to my ever-growing To-Be-Read pile?
Whether you’re looking for your next favorite book, discovering an unfamiliar author, or simply browsing for something interesting to read, I’m glad you’re here.
So settle in, enjoy a little quiet time, and let’s discover some good books together!
