ReplyDeleteMy first line today comes from Karen Sargent's 'Waiting For Butterflies':

Gritty, real, tragic
Oh man...I have to be in the right mood to read tragic!
DeleteOh, me, too! I have to prepare mentally.
DeleteHi Rachel!
ReplyDeleteI have this on my kindle. Have a great weekend!
Yay! Thank you Andie!
DeleteHey, Andie! I'm anxiously awaiting you opinion :)
DeleteShould say your opinion...
DeleteShe sounds very intimidated/overwhelmed, but courageous. That's a good start for any heroine's story.
ReplyDeleteHere's mine:
A Most Inconvenient Marriage by Regina Jennings
February 1865
Gratiot Street Prison
St. Louis, Missouri
“First, you’re going to write a good-bye letter to my sweetheart, and then you’re going to marry me.”
Oooh I have been wanting to read this one!
DeleteHi Kathleen! I hope you like Leaving Oxford if you read it! I think I have read A Most Inconvenient Marriage or it's on my shelf. Sooo many books...
DeleteI love the title! Of course, I am thinking of Oxford, England. :) On a random note, while I was studying in Oxford, England, my professor was leaving my university to go and teach in Oxford, Mississippi. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a bit strange haha! I love it!
DeleteOxford, England to Oxford, Mississippi... quite a difference, but both beautiful! Small world! So wonderful that you studied in Oxford. Well, I did, too, but the other one, ha!
DeleteHe glanced around what had become a dumping ground by the river's edge. Still Life by Dani Pettrey.
ReplyDeleteThis intrigues me for sure!
DeleteSounds great, Paula!
DeleteMississippi! That's my state. ;) Love the series title! :)
ReplyDeleteYay!!! Me too! (Love the series title lol)
DeleteOh wow! Another Mississippi girl! So happy to meet you, Amanda!
DeleteSuch a wonderful, scary feeling starting college. I kind of miss that easy, care-free time!
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah! Well the heroine is named after you. Sarah Beth that is, since it's a nice Southern double name, LOL.
DeleteHaha! I have never been to college...But I did move across the globe for a year...
DeleteThat counts!
DeleteOh my gosh I loved this book! Scratch that, I loved the series. So good :)
ReplyDeleteOh you are soooo loved right now! Thank you!!
DeleteHehe! Yay!!!!
