Welcome to my blog!

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." -Dr. Seuss

Thanks for stopping by. I really hope that you take something away from this blog, even if it's just a book recommendation that leads you to a new series or new author that you will enjoy. I know that by keeping this blog, it's encouraging me to try new genres and to expand my horizons as far as reading new books, rereading old, and I'm even inspired to read the classics that I've missed. Because I'm a mom of four, I'll also be adding children's books into my reviews as I try to spend time reading with my kids on a regular basis. So why not review those as well and share them with you?

Books, for me, have always been great escapes. I remember being stranded on the island with the Swiss Family Robinson when I was 10 years old and it was a great place to be as I was having a rough childhood at the time. I flew away with Peter Pan and traveled with Meg through wrinkles in time, in Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time. Now that I mostly read 'grown up' books, I don't travel to islands but I do live in someone else's world (or mind) for a while and it's a great way to get away from it all even if for a short time every day.

Enjoy my blog and as always, happy reading!

To Suzy Witten

Hi, Suzy,

I am going to be picking up your book this weekend...I hope it's at Barnes & Noble...if not, I'll try Amazon.com.

Thank you for letting me know about it. I am very interested in hearing your side of the tale...graphic is good in my opinion. The Titanic would not have been as effective of a movie if they didn't cause us to realize what those people who went down with the Ship went through. I think we need to 'feel' history in order to really appreciate it. Thank you so much for reading my blog and I'll post about your book as soon as I finish it!

Thank you!
