Happy New Year & First Book of 2016

2016 ... new year, new challenges, new experiences ...  bring it on. Here's to another wonderful year of friendship, shared book love and TBR mountains with indigestion!

and now to First Book of 2016 hosted by Sheila @ Book Journey.  Thanks Sheila, wouldn't miss this, it's a fun way to kick off the year. Head over to Book Journey to check out everyone's choices. 

My pick is IF YOU COULD SEE WHAT I SEE by Cathy Lamb  ...  

I've been meaning to read a Cathy Lamb for *cough* ... years. Kathryn from Book Date has loved many of Cathy Lamb's books and I love Kathryn's reviews, we have quite similar reading tastes so first cab off the rank is a Kathryn-inspired choice :)

I hope everyone loves their 1st book of the year choice ... happy reading :)

Happy New Year & 1st Book of 2015

2014 what an AMAZING year, I am truly blessed! 

Thank you from the heart to everyone for a wonderful year of friendship, blogging, great reads, challenges, laughs, tears, joys and sorrows shared. I'm grateful for the technology we have these days (facebook, instagram, blog) that allows us to share our lives with friends and family across the miles with such ease. 

In 2015 hug loved ones close, hold health & happiness with both hands, live your dreams, rediscover your strengths, treasure the little things and love and laugh with all your heart xx

My pick for the First Book of 2015 hosted by Sheila @ Book Journey is FIRST FROST by Sarah Addison Allen ...  and I'm excited to start. 

I hope everyone loves their 1st book of the year choice ... happy reading :)
