MY THOUGHTS:
   I'm doing a happy dance! Pepper Basham's lastest book was release on February 14th entitled "Between Stairs and Stardust" Don't you just love that title? I love Pepper's books and I became a fan of hers since I read her first book "The Thorn Bearer". I have no doubt you will love her stories if you've never read any which is easily solved by reading this novella. It is a magical, over the moon sweet and delightful story. This novella is part of a compilation of four novellas entitle "Finding ever after". James is not your average hero, having to depend on a lady he's never met. Stella is needing to just keep away from others while a delicate matter is consuming her. Add a little girl, Alice, James little sister tothe mix and you have a fairy tale on the pages. I did like that James and Alice stepmother isn't your normal evil person as seen in fairy tales but a interesting one. The Biltmore is one place I would like to visit. It sounds so beautiful and inviting. Of course, there is always one person in a great book that causes trouble and this one does as well. She's a nightmare of Stella's that she would rather stop haunting Stella's sleep. A great story as only Pepper can write!

 Blessings,

I’m Back

 Hello! I’ve been gone for a long while from my blog due to personal reasons that lasted longer that anticipated.  But I’m back and ready to get started! I’m hoping and praying to make some changes to my blog. There will be book reviews (I make mine short because I don’t like to read a long review).    Places that have free books and anything else I come across that you might want to know. I also what to incorporate Bible verses and short studies of Bible verses or words from the verses.  I also want to let you see the newest member of our family and her antics. A yorkie named Pocket!  Here’s looking to a fresh beginning ! Karen
