A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I am a stay at home mother of two wonderful girls. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

New Author Month - Impressions

When I came up with the idea to have New Author Month, it really wasn't a difficult decision.  I had plenty of new authors on my Kindle and I had no issues picking out books. Most of them are the usual genres I read, but I did go out of my comfort zone a little bit.  I think it's important to do that every once in a while.

Overall, it was a good experience.  I didn't go into it having high expectations, but was pleasantly surprised with the results.  Most of the books I read were very good.  I think the only downside to this whole experience is the fact that I ended up with a lot more books on my watch list than I had before.  I was starting to diminish that list a bit and now I have tons of books to watch again.

I recommend that you try out a new author now and then.  Sometimes you waste your time, but other times you end up finding a great new author to read.
