May flew by! It seemed to go faster than ever.

First Line Friday #90-Sprinkled with Sabotage

Happy Friday, my bookish friends! First Line Friday is hosted by Carrie at Reading is My SuperPower!!  I am also linking up with Gilion on Rose City Reader for Book Beginnings. This is where you share the beginning of the book that you are reading. This week I am reading Sprinkled with Sabotage by by Allison Pearl.

Top Ten Tuesday-Indie Authors

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Indie/Self-Published Books (submitted by Nicole @ BookWyrm Knits). I am excited about this title because I have read quite a few Indie Authors 😂 The hard part will be remembering WHO they all are, LOL. 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. 

Top Ten Indie/Self-Published Authors:

You all know I am going to start with Emma St. Clair! I love her books. These represent two of her series. Emma writes sweet, closed-door romantic comedies. They are hilarious. Her heroines are typically sassy and there is always some kind of animal in each book (notice I didn't say pet 😂).

Stacking the Shelves #65, Sunday Post #62, Sunday Salon #56

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? I am traveling this weekend. I am doing a quick trip to NC, driving there today, and coming back on Monday so that my son can FINALLY get his braces off! We are excited. I will catch up on comments as I can.

Meet Indie Author Allison Pearl

Yesterday I had an opportunity to go to the Spring Vendor Event in Strongsville, Ohio, and I took it! Why? Because I knew author Allison Pearl was going to be there. I wanted to meet her and buy her books. I was not disappointed! 

Sunday Spotlight #5-Allison Pearl

Happy Sunday, friends! A few weeks ago I started doing a "Sunday Spotlight" where I highlight a book/author that deserves more love!  I take a book that I have read and enjoyed that has less than 100 reviews on Goodreads and give it some extra love by drawing it to your attention! Maybe someday I will host a link party (if I can figure it out) to make it easier to participate.
