Happy Friday! I hope everyone had a lovely week. Has it gotten cold where you live? It is super chilly here today, and I think that winter and Jack Frost have finally come to stay. Do you enjoy the cold weather? I confess I prefer the sunny days of summer where I can wear my flip-flops and coconut scented perfume. :) However, cold weather does bring toasty fires and hot cocoa with it--so it is all good in the end. :)

One Enchanted Christmas
by Melissa Tagg
And the first line is...
"Once upon a time--specifically, last December--author Maren Grant had what she thought might be the most perfect night of her life."
Happy reading and have a fabulous
Friday!
I loved One Enchanted Christmas! Mine is: "Wounded soldiers returned from war as heroes. Wounded nurses returned as old maids." From The Thorn Healer by Pepper Basham.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very interesting thought--I've been reading Bad Day for a Bombshell, so I've been thinking a lot about World War 2 lately.
Delete"Jane Fairmont Bell sat alone in the keeper's lodge she had once shared with her husband." - The Innkeeper of Ivy Hill by Julie Klassen. I am hoping to read One Enchanted Christmas soon!
ReplyDeleteI pre-orderd this book, and it came in the mail yesterday! I can't wait to read it! What an interesting opening line...where is the husband?
DeleteI almost stepped on it.
ReplyDelete~Ordinary Snowflakes by Jennifer Rodewald
Loved this book!
DeleteIt's FINALLY cold here! Like, today. haha!
ReplyDeleteYes! I have a little heater that sits next to my desk---I had to turn it on today. :)
DeleteReagan McAdams had been gone more than a decade when Rachel resurrected her.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading my editor Robin Patchen's new book, Convenient Lies.
Your blog is lovely :)
Thanks Janet! :)
DeleteMy book this week is Ruthless: Scientology, My Son David Miscavige, and Me and the first line from Chapter 24 'Now What?' is:
ReplyDelete"The degree to which David has deviated from L. Ron Hubbard's management directives since he took power in the 1980s has had several consequences that I don't think he ever predicted."
Happy Friday!
Wow...that sounds intense. Consequences always follow our choices and actions--sometimes it would be nice to know what those are before we made the mistakes.
