Blogspiration #1

Mystery & Suspense Challenge

Book Chick City is once again hosting the Mystery & Suspense Challenge and though I haven’t managed to complete it in the past (goodness! You’d think I had a crazy hectic life or something!), I plan on trying again this year.  I mean, it can’t hurt, right? 🙂 The timeline for the challenge is: January […]

Forbidden – Tabitha Suzuma

Forbidden is an emotionally charged book. It’s a story of loss, of heartache, of trials and tribulations that no child should ever have to go through, and it is the story of a love so fierce that nothing and no one can stand in its way.

Espresso…Mmm – The Espresso Book Machine

But not the steamy hot kind that comes from your favorite coffee shop. I’m talking about the Espresso Book Machine.  It’s all over the Twittersphere today that HarperCollins publishing house has signed up to allow 5,000+ of their titles to be offered through the lovely device.
