No better way to enjoy a good book!
On the lazy river, floating away!
The cabana was a nice place to read and relax.
Good food too!
Take me back!

Reading with me!
Thanks to William Morrow for this book.
Reading in Seattle
It was so nice outside
and this was the perfect place to read
with the water as the perfect background.
This was my read and of course
Starbucks ( I am in Seattle )!
California Reading…
Combine the beach and reading and I at my happiest!
Here is my view while reading in California.
Part of the time I was in the hot tub reading.
This is the best way to spend a day!
Where do you read your books?
A Day at the Beach
This is my favorite place to read!
When I get a chance to escape the cold winter
and go to the beach, I enjoy taking a good book.
When this is your view, it is so easy to get lost
in a good book.

Goodreads: Eleven years ago, Lindsey Nash escaped into the night with her young daughter and left an abusive relationship.Her ex-husband was sent to jail and she started over with a new life. Now, Lindsey is older and wiser, with a teenage daughter who needs her more than ever. When her ex-husband is finally released, Lindsey believes she’s cut all ties. But she gets the sense that someone is watching her. Her new boyfriend is threatened. Her home is invaded, and her daughter is shadowed. Lindsey is convinced it’s her ex-husband, even though he claims he’s a different person. But can he really change? Is the one who wants her dead closer to home than she thought?
Chevy Stevens targets her readership with a novel that hits all the notes they come to expect from her—and ratchets up the stakes even more in a novel that explores the darkest heart of love and obsession.
Ope’s Opinion: WARNING: Do not start this book unless you have ample time to continue reading one more chapter, one more, one more….. It is amazingly intense!!! On page one you be absorbed in the story. During certain portions ( no spoilers ) you may need to remind yourself to breathe. When you think the story is done, hold on… it isn’t – no details – just read to the end! My only negative thought of this book is that it wrapped up a little too fast, a little too neatly, a little too easily. I would still recommend this book.

My daughter Kristin of Kritters Ramblings gave me
these as a gift. She combined my love of reading
and my enjoyment of adult coloring. She
is very thoughtful as usual.
Thank you Kristi!
Where do your interests come together?
This is a jigsaw puzzle my friend Mary Ann gave to me.
She knew I loved books and blog about them all the time.
She also knew I enjoyed jigsaw puzzles, so…
This only made sense to put them together!!
Where Do All the Books Go?
When you are done reading and reviewing them – where do they go?
On a train,

in a hotel,
Where do they go??
A book with a GPS would be fun to follow……
Coming Soon…..….

In February I hope to read….

Goodreads: Twenty-year-old Abigail Turner has only known her mother, Claire—who died shortly after she was born—through letters, videos, postcards, and journals. Abby’s father, Josh, has raised his precious daughter himself, but his overprotectiveness has become stifling. Abby longs to forge out on her own and see the world after a childhood trapped indoors: she suffers from bronchopulmonary dysplasia, which means a case of the sniffles can rapidly escalate into life-threatening pneumonia.
But when Abby’s doctor declares her healthy—for now—her grandmother Millie whisks her away to Europe to visit the Christmas markets that her mother cherished and chronicled in her travel journals. Despite her father’s objections, Abby and Millie embark on a journey of discovery in which Abby will learn secrets that force her to reevaluate her image of her mother and come to a more mature understanding of a parent-child bond that transcends death.
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Steena Holmes offers a tender and heartfelt exploration of parental love and a daughter’s longing for connection in the poignant next chapter following Saving Abby.
