So I’m horrible about blogging, which is obvious from how many posts I have 🙂 But I AM an avid reader, so I thought I’d drop in once a month and let you know what I’ve enjoyed over the last month.

Fair warning, I tend to read VERY broadly — LOL.

• Protect the Prince, Jennifer Estep — LOVED this second installment of the Crown of Shards trilogy. I can’t wait to read the third. Highly recommended. Fantasy romance.
• Sinister Shadows, Colleen Gleason — Super fun, with a zany supporting cast and a fun romance. All the books in the Wicks Hollow series are fantastic. Mystery romance.
• Aurora Blazing, Jesse Mihalik — Amazing second book in the Consortium Rebellion series (huh, reading a lot of second books this month) with a solid stand-alone romance. Sci-Fi romance.
• The Transporter, Liz Maverick — High-stakes, fast moving with interesting characters… this is the first book in the Hudson Kings series (on KU) and I’m super interested to see where the series goes. Romantic suspense.
• Brazen and the Beast — Love, love, love this book and series (Barenuckle Bastards). Feisty heroine, yummy hero. An all over just-wow series, with the 3d installment coming at the end of June. Historical romance.

Hello all (or at least the 3 people who see this off the bat 🙂 )!

Once upon a time I had a blog called Musings from the Blonde Side and I posted semi-regularly, and it had book reviews of stuff I really dug, and news about books and such. 

And then life happened and I stopped blogging entirely.

Now we’re in a new year. I’ve got a new website (oooh, look, shiny), a new (sorta) book (look to the right, look to the right!!!), and decided to start over with the blog. 

Because who I was back then isn’t really who I am now. Not that there was anything wrong with the old me 🙂 I just had a different set of priorities, and turning 50 seems to have given me a kind of freedom I didn’t really expect (along with hot flashes, ridiculous weight gain and the attention span of a fruit fly).

I won’t discuss politics on here (that’s what Twitter is for), but I will do random musings on most Mondays, and throw a recipe or two in when I have something I really like, and likely talk about the realities of getting older.

So if you like to chat about books, welcome!
