Good afternoon! I’m sorry for the lack of posts in the last couple of weeks, but I have been on vacation. It was a very relaxing vacation spent visiting family and I got to read a whole bunch, which was excellent. With being on holiday, I added so much to my library.

Added to my library this week I only added the one book to my Kindle library this week and it was a free book: Until Midnight by Melissa Landers. This is a novella in her Alienated series which is about a girl who falls in love with an alien. I read the first book and found it a lot of fun so I was happy to pick up this free snippet.
