Sunday Summary - January 6 - 12, 2019

Welcome to my Sunday Summary.  A look back on my bookish adventures for the week.

The New Year is starting to feel like old news at this point.  I am finally writing 2019 more often than 2018! 

Me: 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9

My reading challenges have been set on both GoodReads and the 50 Book Pledge websites, and my first completed reads are starting to be reflected.

Displays in retail shops and stores are filled with Valentines themes, and even a few Easter items!  No wonder I feel like time is flying! 

But for now, the reality is cold, harsh weather has made staying in with a good book and a cup of hot tea my go-to plan!  Still, there never seems to be enough reading time.

TEAR ME APART, by J. T Ellison. My review of this thriller can be found HERE.
