Good Evening, Everyone!
My Current Reads!
Between rearranging furniture, cleaning the house excessively, and running dozens of errands, I had very little free time to read last week. Hopefully, I will find the time to begin reading Girls of Paper And Fire tomorrow. It's the only book I have on my agenda this week. I should have more time to read once I get past Thanksgiving.
Reading Update
I did read a few more pages in the biography American Mirror: The Life and Art of Norman Rockwell. I'm now on page 78.

The only book in the mail last week was Who I Am With You by Robin Lee Hatcher, which I'll be reviewing in January.
Holiday Gift Guide
20th Century Fox nicely sent me the Maze Runner Trilogy Blu-ray/DVD Gift Set, which I will be reviewing during my upcoming Holiday Gift Guide!
New On The Bookshelf
Great Finds
I stopped by the local thrift store and bought one book - Dorthy Must Die by Danielle Paige. I don't remember what I paid for the paperback, but it was under a dollar.
While I was in the a Dollar Tree store getting cleaning supplies, I glanced at the book section and found Duplicity: A Julia Gooden Mystery by Jane Haseldine. It was published last year by Kensington Books.
Kindle
Last week, I went through the rest of my books, boxed up the ones I no longer wanted, and donated them to Salvation Army. While I was sorting through the books, I made sure to put aside all of the titles by John Saul, as I want to reread them in 2019. This is when I noticed I didn't own two of his novels - The Unwanted and Hellfire. Since I'm short on cash because of the Holidays, I decided to look for the books at my town's library. I guess they're rearranging things because there are books just stacked up on the floor. Many of the bookcases were missing. Eventually, I did find the "S" section and to my surprise they only had five books by John Saul. Why was I surprised? At one point in time, the library carried almost all of the author's titles.
Anyway, I ended purchasing The Unwanted and Hellfire on Kindle at cheap prices. I don't believe I have ever read either book, so I'm looking forward to reading them in 2019!

I genuinely cherish the thoughts and insights of my readers, and I wholeheartedly welcome your engagement. However, to foster a truly constructive dialogue, I’ll be keeping a careful eye on the comments section. This means I’ll be moderating to weed out any spammy detritus, overly harsh critiques, or contributions that don’t add anything meaningful to the conversation. Think of it as my little corner of the internet—a space where everyone can share their perspectives without the noise. Let’s make this a place where ideas can flourish and grow, rather than wither away in the shadows of irrelevance.
