A LIttle Romance
Et nos cedamus amori. And we, too, shall yield to love. – Virgil

Gearing Up for the Holidays!

It's that lovely, cozy time of year! Hallmark holiday movies and festive reads, here I come! Yesss!

I've started early. It's been a somewhat stressful time. My foot surgeries both failed. Both! Next week, I will have semi-emergency surgery on the first foot. I will be stuck through the holiday season and, frankly, through much of the coming year. Lots of time to write, read, listen, watch...

Although my Audible credits are beginning to pile up, I wanted to check the Plus catalogue first as well as Kindle Unlimited. I ended up downloading quite a bit from both as well as purchasing a few.

Do you receive emails about free books and deals? I get them from favorite authors I follow, The Fussy Librarian, BookBub, Goodreads, and, of course, Amazon. I know there are a lot of excellent, bookish newsletters out there. So much to read, so little time...

Amazingly (at least, to me -- where have I been?), Kate Hewitt is a fairly new author to me. What a lovely discovery! She has written several series and lots of her books are included in Audible's Plus catalogue and Kindle Unlimited, including some holiday reads.

I also haven't read any of Catherine Walsh's books, but her Holiday Romance was on sale for .99 and it looked really cute, so I snatched it up. That little purchase gave me a great discount for the Audible book, so I bought that, too.

It's exciting to discover new authors in one's preferred genres. It's also splendid to hear of new books from favorite authors. 

Not that I don't reread and re-listen. I do -- frequently!

I like what I like and I love what I love!

How about you? Do you like seasonal stories?

Wishing you quality quiet time with wonderful books!

    Romance!

    It's no secret that I prefer fat HEAs. Where better than in a beautiful romance?

    Mysteries -- Cozy Mysteries!


    Fun, diverse, and clever, this genre also offers those satisfying endings I prefer. Moreover, they often include a romantic interest.  I absolutely love these books and have "discovered" many wonderful authors, books, and series to enjoy.

    Since, like my favorite romances, cozy mysteries are feel good books with wonderful settings, characters, and satisfying endings, I will be featuring them now and then.

    Happy Reading!
