Book review: The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom
A book I couldn't stop reading. I will truly miss some of these characters. Set in the antebellum south, the lives of the masters and the slaves of Tall Oaks plantation are brought to life. The author makes you feels their pain and their happiness. One of the best books I have ever read.

Book review: In her shoes by Jennifer Wiener
Two sisters who couldn't be any different try and make their way through life after the death of their mother. Add a heart broken father, missing grandmother and evil step mother and you have the recipe for drama. As an older sibling i could relate to the character of Rose and everything she went through with Maggie. I just hope my brother never sleeps with any of my boyfriends. Overall a good book and great characters.

Book Review: A Winter Wonderland by Fern Michaels, etc. (Anthology)
I like Fern Michaels but I will be honest I only read this book because of Leslie Meier. If you're a fan of Leslie Meier's Lucy Stone series you won't be disappointed. The Christmas thief is short but sweet and well worth the read. Lucy's daughter Elizabeth gets herself entangled in a mess and Mom Lucy and Miss Tilly come to the rescue. I love the character of Miss Tilly, in my opinion one of the funniest characters in fiction. She and Grandma Mazur from the Stephanie Plum series are absolute scene stealers.

Christmas
Getting all my decorations set up and figuring out which Christmas books to read this month. I'm thinking of reading the new Fern Michaels and Leslie Meier anthology. Leslie Meier is one of my favorites. What are some of your favorite Christmas books?

Am I the only one?
Am I the only one who has to finish all the books that I am reading by the end of the year. New year equals new books for me.

Just finished reading the Frugalista Files by Natalie P. McNeal and I highly recommend it. A really insightful and entertaining look into the author life. She makes you feel like anybody can be debt free.
