    My first book of the year is what I am highlighting today: These Precious Days: Essays. It was a wonderful way to start my reading year.

      I've already read this one in 2022. My first book of the year is actually an ARC for Chantel Guertin's newest book coming in March; Gigi, Listening. :-)

    I have yet to finish a book this year. You, Me and the Colors of Life looks interesting.

    Sounds like a bit of an emotional read. It's fun to pick up a freebie and then actually enjoy it!

Scooby Doo: The Sword And The Scoob

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL NOW AND DVD MARCH 23!
