August 2024 Reading Update
Fell a little behind in my reading challenge...probably because of my driving vacation. Sadly I'm one of those people who can't read in a vehicle. Although, someone told me about Motion Sickness Glasses that I'm looking forward to trying. Still should be able to meet my goal
Found a new author, Darynda Jones; I really enjoyed her Sunshine Vicram series. Yes, I binge read the series.
Also started a new series, The 'Burg, which is set in Indiana by one of my favorite romantic suspense authors Kristen Ashley. And yes, I am currently binge reading the series.
