Stacking the Shelves #70, Sunday Post #67, Sunday Salon #61

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? Yesterday I went to the Solon Public Library for their library booksale (going on through tomorrow afternoon) and met book blogger Stacy from Stacy's Books. She is the first book blogger I have met in person, so that was pretty cool. Today we are going to Mansfield to have lunch with my daughter. I hope to also visit the used bookstore there. Tomorrow is going to be church and relaxing. Have a great weekend!

Top Ten Tuesday-February TBR

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is 2023 debut books I am looking forward to. Since I literally have no idea of ANY debut books I am looking forward to (does this mean new author debut books? (my assumption) Or just books coming out in 2023?), I decided to go with my February TBR. I never do a monthly TBR so it's new for me, LOL. I decided to list ten of the authors I plan to try this year! 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. 

10 Books I plan/hope to read in February:

Author: Denise Hunter

Genre: Contemporary Romance, Fiction,

My review:

What a heartbreaking beginning to Harvest Moon! It is so heavy but completely captures your attention. While it is the third book in the Riverbend series, it can be read as a stand-alone novel.

Top Ten Tuesday-Authors that gravitate toward Geographical Terms

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is: Books with Geographical Terms in the Title (for example: mountain, island, latitude/longitude, ash, bay, beach, border, canyon, cape, city, cliff, coast, country, desert, epicenter, hamlet, highway, jungle, ocean, park, sea, shore, tide, valley, etc. For a great list, click here!)

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? I had a pretty good reading week. In the other part of my life it was a stressful week. Not much going on here, probably another weekend of mostly reading and relaxing 😀
