December was a great month for book buying. I was able to restrain myself from buying any new ones. It wasn’t too hard since we moved in December and my bookshelves somehow were destroyed during the move. I’m not sure if that was intentional by my husband or not. I don’t think he wanted to […]
November was a pretty quiet book month for me. I did use up an audio credit as well as grabbed a freebie and some review books. Also, there was a virtual signing for one of J.R. Ward’s books this month, and we all know what that means. Tanya must buy. So I purchased a VS […]
