Stacking the Shelves #222 Sunday Post #219 Sunday Salon #213

Hey, my bookish friends!!  How are you all doing? I am thrilled to say that we FINALLY found a house and signed a contract last weekend!! It is a new build and should be finished in a few weeks (the couple building it were not able to sell their house). It has been a week of paperwork, trying to process this news, and yes, I have already started packing a few things. The agenda for this weekend is to relax before things get crazy. What are your plans for the weekend?

Baby Llama Drama

Title: Baby Llama Drama

Series: Sweet As Sugar Maple #2

Author: Kate Watson

Narrators: Stephanie Rose & Rock Engle

My Review:

While this book looks like a light and fluffy escapism read, it is anything but. The story deals with abandonment issues, infertility, pregnancy complications, loss, anxiety, and more.

The Second Chance Trailer Park

Title: The Second Chance Trailer Park

Author: Katie Powner

My Review:

Meredith is hard to relate to at the beginning of the story. I am not that far from fifty-two, and I can't imagine moving into a senior living trailer park as a means to settle down.

In a Word, Yes

Title: In a Word, Yes

Author: Kit Tosello

Source: library

My Review:

Warning: this book starts slowly. It took me a while to get into it, and I kept wondering if I would enjoy it. I kept reading because I loved Kit Tosello's first book, and I am so glad I did not give up on this one.

TTT-G is for great books!

Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is: Authors I’ve Met. I have already done posts like this and you can check them out here, herehere and here. I have not met any new authors since my last post. So, today I am going to continue with the alphabet and I am up to "G." I picked ten of my favorites that started with G. It is a mix of fiction and nonfiction. A  B, C, DE and F.  Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.
