Illness and other things have slowed down my reviewing in the last couple of months but I am trying to catch up. I always review fiction no matter how long it takes to get to it. Non-fiction books I don't always review; depends on mood or time or who knows.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167054806459662988.post-14286754064000410252015-02-08T05:36:07.438-08:002015-02-08T05:36:07.438-08:00Nice selection there, a good month's reading. ...Nice selection there, a good month's reading.
