For years I’ve kept a Word document to track the many print books I read. It includes such details as title, author, date read, and grade as well as links to my personal reviews. My dear document has grown to 64 pages with hundreds of links. It’s unwieldy and most certainly not a perfect system,…
Oh yes, we’ve definitely started 2011 with a bang! Our 2011 Listening Challenge is up and running and, as far as I can tell from comments and emails, we have at least twenty committed to the challenge!

Ours will be an old fashioned Christmas celebration, complete with country cooking and Southern style cornbread dressing. Traveling to and from our family get-togethers, I’ll…

I chose Karen Marie Moning’s Darkfever knowing that it would also challenge me as a series of unending stories with no HEAs nicely tying up each book’s conclusion.

Discovering earlier this year that more of Lisa Kleypas’ backlist was scheduled for future audiobook release, the romance audio enthusiast inside of me was ecstatic. Back in my first days of reading romance I read every Kleypas book I could lay my hands on and over the years I’ve devoured each of her new releases…
