August 09, 2023 is National Book Lovers Day!
Let’s Talk About Books!
I can never pass up a chance to talk about books.
With the Goodreads Challenge I’ve been blogging about in my ► past posts.
To see all the books I’ve read and reviewed so far this year, go straight to my ► Goodreads Challenge 2023.
The summer months have slowed my reading down as we are spending more time outdoors. We’ve been on a few trips, but instead of reading, I’ve been drawing. That news is for another day, though.
I’ve checked out more books at our local library than I read. Two large novels were sent back. They were not at all my “cup of tea” but that’s okay. No offense to those authors, we can’t expect to connect with every book we pick up, right?
The books I did manage to read so far this past month are:
“Taste of Home All-American Cookbook: 370 Ways to Savor the Flavors of the USA, “by Taste of Home
For years, I subscribed to the “Taste of Home” magazine. So, when I saw this book at the library, I grabbed it up. I’m so glad I did!
“Taste of Home All-American Cookbook: 370 Ways to Savor the Flavors of the USA” is a great cookbook. I enjoyed all the small back stories from those who submitted recipes. This book would be a helpful edition to have on hand for everyday meals to large crowds, picnics and so much more.
“Kitty Confidential,” by Molly Fitz
Pet Whisperer P.I. #1 “Kitty Confidential,” by Molly Fitz was an engaging book and kept me on my toes on, “who done it?” If you like pets, in this case, cats, you will enjoy this one.
I’m glad I found author Molly Fitz. Her writing is great, humorous and I have added her books to my “to read” list.
Now For Some Really Big News!
The proof to my fourteenth is on it’s way!! I’m so excited to see what it looks like.
I want to thank all my Beta Readers for looking it over. I appreciate you all!
Hopefully if all goes as planned, I’ll release it this fall. I’ll keep you posted.
