This week I want to introduce a topic to discuss that I see often. Cliffhangers. I tend to read series, and a lot of books in series tend to leave off on a cliffhanger. While I have a strong opinion of my own, I’ve learned that if I […]
If you grew up like I did, you probably heard “don’t judge a book by its cover” all the time. Granted, the phrase typically refers to anything other than books, and was used all the time throughout my younger years to remind us not to judge something (or […]
There’s nothing like blog posts to really showcase my personality. This week’s prompt gives me an opportunity to showcase posts I’ve written that give you the best glimpse of me. This is a fun topic, because I get to browse through all of my post and show off […]
