Here we are for another monthly wrap up fa la la la la la la la la. I have no idea how it is already December. It's hard to slow down and enjoy anything when time is marching along at warp speed. I feel like November was a good reading month, so let's get to it! I read 17 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

My Review:
Deadly Revenge, the third and final book in the Pearl River series begins with a bang. While I recommend the books be read in order, this one could also be read as a standalone novel.
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is a Halloween Freebie. Saturday I went hiking with my husband and yesterday (Monday) I went hiking with my son. I thought it would be fun to do a post on books that have hiking in them. The problem is my memory! I know I read two books recently that had hiking in it and I only remember one of them. I also know there was one book in one of my favorite series, but of course I can't remember which book, LOL! So, what you are actually going to get are books that either have hiking in them, or are set in National parks so might have hiking in them 😂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.

I don't have the best memory for remembering characters and honestly wouldn't want to go on vacation with most of them. Therefore, it will be a week where I go off topic again.

Author: Patricia Bradley
Publisher: Revell
Genre: Christian Fiction, Suspense, Contemporary Romance

My Review:
Deception is the fourth book in the Natchez Trace Park Rangers series, but can easily stand alone. The series is connected more by location than characters.
February passed in a blur of work. I had some reading duds, but overall I had a decent reading month. I read 25 books and DNF'd two. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

August found me with more reading time...although the month still flew past.
I finished 21 books again in August and DNFed 4. Audio books really helped my numbers this month, as did a few short books. I am back to my average 😊. Click on the cover of the book if you want to read my review.

Normally I am late with these posts, but this time I am early, LOL. But, to be real, I know I am not going to read anymore big books before September 4th, and I won't get to anymore on my summer TBR. When I planned for these challenges I had NO idea I would lose my job and then spend 2ish months setting up my a small business. This REALLY cut down on my reading time.
So, what did I read. For the 20 Books of Summer Challenge, here were my possibilities (the ones I read are linked to my reviews):
Series: Logan Point #1
Author: Patricia Bradley
Publisher: Revell
Genre: Suspense, Christian Fiction

Challenges: Literary Escapes 2022, 23 in 2023
My Review:
Shadows of the Past was Patricia Bradley's debut novel. It is also the first in her Logan Point series. I have read other books by her but not her earlier works.
Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is books with one word titles.
