My Review:

I love reading Amanda Cox's books. Why? Because they are deep, thought-provoking, and profound. They change you. He Should Have Told the Bees is difficult to review because I have no words.

Top Ten Tuesday-Books on Fall TBR list

Happy Tuesday, friends! I am excited to be doing another link-up with top ten Tuesday. Today the topic is books on your fall TBR list.

I have obligated myself for 40 reviews before the end of the year, so I will put the books that are due in the next month or so, including the one I am almost finished with.
