Revealing Eden by Victoria Foyt My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is another time when I wish Goodreads would let us give half stars. This was good. Not quite a 4 for me, but really not as low as a 3 either. I did enjoy this book. When I had to put it down, […]

So, I’m already a day behind, and I did actually have time yesterday I could have blogged.  I’ll blame it on the snuggly puppy that was on my lap that I didn’t want to disturb.  So I’m going to do two posts today, starting with yesterday’s prompt: Today commemorate a specific reader or moment in […]
