I have loved to read since I was a little girl. I go almost nowhere without a book or a kindle.
I love historical novels. They can be fiction or based on real history.  Romances are my favorite but I also really like American history especially Revolutionary and Civil War era. I also enjoy some fantasy fiction but I am very selective.

Buzz words: western, Civil War, Revolutionary war, Scotland, Indianapolis, dragons, witch, rescued trafficking, artist, gothic and Russia.

2018 End of Year Wrap Up

     So November and December were a bust for Book club. This tends to happen around holiday time because it is hard to gather such a large group when everyone is also dealing with extra family, cooking, cleaning, and all things dealing with presents.

I'm really hoping to keep track of everything this coming year and finally finish the challenge! In 2017 I ...

And here is what I have to say, finally: Let’s invite one another in. Maybe then we can begin to fear less, to make fewer wrong assumptions, to let go of the biases and stereotypes that unnecessarily divide us. Maybe we can better embrace the ways we are the same. It’s not about being perfect. It’s not about where you get yourself in the end. There’s power in allowing yourself to be known and heard, in owning your unique story, in using your authentic voice. And there’s grace in being willing to know and hear others. This, for me, is how we become.” Rachel : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nicole :  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For our May meeting we will be reading: The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See Mi-ja and Young-sook, two girls living on the Korean island of Jeju, are best friends that come f...

February Meeting

After taking January off and agreeing on a book, Truly Madly, Guilty , we met in February. Instead of going into detail about how this went over I am going to link one of our members Heather 's blog. She posted a book review on the book. I will say this we were all really excited to read it and then... Truly Madly Guilty Book Review      For March we decided to read Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. A lot of us are excited about this book so hopefully, it will go over better than the last.
