Collecting
I used to collect books. Lots of books. Once a book made its way to my house it never left. But somewhere along the line I realized that many of those books would never be read again (some books just don't call out for a second, third, fourth read). So I began the painful sorting process. First I offered the books to my family and then, if there weren't any takers, I began dropping them off at our local library's used book sale. (Hello to the Friends of the Pottsville Library

Review of The Midas Touch
I love a good mystery/thriller that weaves in history and when I learned about The Midas Touch from Partners in Crime book tours I couldn't say YES fast enough. After all, it was written by people who were behind one of those movie series that I could watch over and over again(and have) - National Treasure. Read my review today, enter the giveaway and check out last week's interview with Oren Aviv HERE. More About The Midas Touch July 19, 1799. Napoleon’s armies advance into

Review of Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice
So, I did something crazy. I read Finlay Donovan is Killing It and I liked it. I said I would read the next one but somehow, I never got around to it. My TBR list is SO LONG. Then a few years later I spotted the fourth book in the series and clicked it into my cart. I know what you're thinking, [GASP] You skipped two books?
