We've read some of the same books, my friend!!! :D

Are you going to write a "Best of 2013" post? I hope you do.

I think all libraries should have red in them! :D

I just added a couple of pages to my blog, and I also wonder if anyone ever notices them!

I just read your book list. You've read some great books!

I see some very familiar authors and titles on this list!

I had been reading so much nonfiction that I dedicated this summer to cozy mysteries. I enjoy them but am ready for something with a little more "meat" for the colder months. Maybe historical fiction.
