My Week in Review
Well, another month is coming to a close.....
It was that or Earth, Wind, and Fire, and this seemed more fitting for the year we are having. I am glad this week is over. We had to do one of those communication style trainings at work for three days. My results were not shocking. I am highest in the analyzer quadrant. I mean, I do have a chemical engineering degree, and I taught chem and physics, and worked as a programmer. So, yeah, not surprising.
I hardly ever read holiday books, but they have been doing great things for me this year. Maybe I just need more cheer, but I have been loving all the holiday books these days. I expect I will be reading more and more of these books this year.
Our ballots came today, and like clockwork, one came from my daughter, who is registered to vote in IL. We have returned the ballots with "moved" written on the outside, but still, they come. I just spent more than 30 mins googling and could find NOTHING on how to get removed. 🤷♀️ Way to be on the ball, NJ.
Think big!

What I Read Last Week
I had one disappointment this week (Majesty), but all my other books were so good! Can I just say, I am so happy to have stumbled upon Heather Smith. I look forward to getting through all her backlist. And, Tom Ellen's newest book had me feeling the feels. It was fantastic! I am going to talk about more of my 5-star books on Friday and full reviews should be out at some point too.

It's an all hockey romance weekend! This was not planned. I got ahead with Ellen's book, so I am sticking one of my shelf books in, and Bowen wins! Quinn is new-to-me, but I usually can't go wrong with a hockey romance. So far, so good.
